I'm just starting to try and get some SpaceExplorers working on AIX 5.3.
I installed 3DxWareUNIX v1.2.11, our oslevel is 5300-03-00, and the prerequisite filesets are all OK. Rebooted after installation with the device plugged in like the box leaflet says.
Attempting to run xcube as a normal user complained that no driver was running. Attempting to start the driver with
Code: Select all
3dxsrv -d usb
Like some other forum posters, logging in as root to CDE helped somewhat - the driver started after about 30 seconds, the device lights came on and it was functional with the demo apps and Catia V5. Logging back in as a normal user after this did not change the situation, except the device lights stayed on.
Debug output from normal user login is as follows:
Code: Select all
