[Radiance-general] More tutorial problems

[iebele]

Hi Nick, 

There was a conflict in the naming of several Radiance executables for Linux distributions.
I use a standard Radiance install of Debian, where genbox is renamed to genrbox:
/usr/bin/genrbox
You also might find "rview" being renamed to "rvu"

Good luck, 

Iebele

  Hello all,

  I'm following the tutorial: http://radsite.lbl.gov/radiance/refer/tutorial.html
  ...and I receive this error: 

  oconv room.rad > test.oct
  sh: genbox: not found
  oconv: warning - (!genbox gray_paint room 3 2 1.75 -i): empty file
  sh: genbox: not found
  xform: (standard input): warning - empty file
  oconv: warning - (!genbox blue_plastic box .5 .5 .5 | xform -rz 15 -t .5 .75 0): empty file

  nick at nick-desktop:~$ rvu -vp 2.25 .375 1 -vd -.25 .125 -.125 -av .5 .5 .5 test.oct
  sh: genbox: not found
  rvu: warning - (!genbox gray_paint room 3 2 1.75 -i): empty file
  sh: genbox: not found
  xform: (standard input): warning - empty file
  rvu: warning - (!genbox blue_plastic box .5 .5 .5 | xform -rz 15 -t .5 .75 0): empty file


  I can see the red ball centered on the screen, but no room and table.

  How can I get genbox and xform to work?

  (From my limited knowledge of Radiance/Ubuntu, I think I need to install these components, or unarchive them from the Radiance installation package)

  Thanks,
  Nick
