The Linux section of this page was a mess. It looked like it might have been created by a browser bug or something, since it seemed to grow on every edit, with duplicated text from the windows section. I nuked it when I split the page out. -- Rob Linden 22:47, 12 December 2006 (PST)


I'm just starting out with open source projects and I've managed to re-compile a project or two--but only in knoppix linux. I don't have the suite that is seems needed for the windows compile but I have cygwin and MinGW installed and have downloaded all the necessary includes for the sl source--but following the linux instructions in windows doesn't seem a plausible experiment to try. Anyone got some compile instructions for people who want to recompile in windows with open source tools? Dom DaSilva 8:14P 01.09.07.

After compiling a debug build of the viewer I noticed that there is a server selection drop down of some sort to the right of the preferences button. Which of these should I be selecting to login? The only one that does anything interesting is "Aditi" and it just tells me that I need to download a newer version of the client and quits.

If I need to be connecting to the beta grid that's fine, but it would be helpful to know what each of these servers are. I suspect that "DMZ" and "local" are internal to Linden Labs, and that "Aditi" is likely the live grid, but what about the others?

Thanks.
