You need to have the QuickTransit package installed. If you do and it still doesn't work, please create an account for me and send only me the login information so I can log in remotely and debug it. - Greg On Thu, 13 Jul 2006, Sabuj Pattanayek wrote:

Hi,
Unfortunately that didn't work. It doesn't like the python2.4 executable.
Thanks, Sabuj Pattanayek

I was wondering if there is a port for chimera to run on Linux IA64 (sgi prism)? The x86 version runs in emulation mode on the system, thus the graphics defaults to Mesa indirect glx (really slow). Would a dev be willing to port it for this system if given access to the system?
I'm also working on getting pymol compiled for it. vmd already has a native port with good performance.
Try the SGI IRIX version of chimera on the SGI Prism, I'm told that the IRIX emulator does a much better job than the x86 emulator. And please report back how well it works. Since all of the Linux Itanium systems with graphics are SGI Prisms, if the IRIX version works well, there would be little incentive to do a separate port.
Our 64-bit desktop plan is to eventually do x86-64 (Opteron/Xeon) ports for both Windows and Linux as those systems should be more common.
If there are others who would use chimera port that is not currently available, please speak up. It's a fair amount of work, so if there's no demand, it won't happen.
