Can I launch Blender

[blackfox1]

I unpack archive and write at terminal: blender. Terminal returns: command not found.

Hi blackfox1
I take it you are in the directory you unpacked the archive in. Try:

Code: [Select]

./blender

[blackfox1]

Nothing. I make "cd" before execute. "run" command from menu also ignores blender(elf). I don`t try other files,but think that result will be same..... And there is also no "wifi" option in Corepure menu, that was in TCL...... (TCL ignores blender too)
P.S. As I a can see Tiny Core is dream-os and os of the future ) There are no analogs now, so I want it very much...

Hi blackfox1

Nothing. I make "cd" before execute.

What do you mean "nothing"? After you entered  ./blender  what was the exact response?

[blackfox1]

./blender not found ((, as I can remember now

[Rich]

Hi blackfox1
Then it's in that directory. Maybe check if it's in a subdirectory and try from there.

[blackfox1]

I try to launch it some times before, by 2 linuxes.
First Porteus: All ok.
Second: Lighthouse puppy: I think, the same story like there (I cannot find solution(I don`t try to find it))
Maybe something about hardware................................
I will try today another computer...

Is blender a script or a binary?

If it's a binary, is it looking for the loader in /lib64?

If it's a script, is it looking for bash or for perl/python in /usr/bin?

[polikuo]

It's a binary.
I've tried to list out the possible dependencies, but no luck.
Here's what I've found out so far ...

Code: [Select]

tc@box:~$ tce-load -i expat2.tcz libGL.tcz libXi.tcz libXrender.tcz glu.tcz

Then, I tried to compile from source ...

Code: [Select]

mkdir build
cd build
cmake .. -DPYTHON_INCLUDE_DIR=/usr/local/include/python2.7 -DPYTHON_LIBRARY=/usr/local/lib/libpython2.7.so
...
-- Could NOT find OpenImageIO (missing:  OPENIMAGEIO_LIBRARY OPENIMAGEIO_INCLUDE_DIR)

CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:870 (message):

...
The deps I used so far

Code: [Select]

compiletc
cmake
git
boost-dev
openal-dev
python-dev

OpenImageIO, we don't have such library. 

[blackfox1]

There must be someone who use Blender by TCl. Really..... or not...?

Ref:

Code: [Select]

..could not find the GLX extension..
..did you have the graphics-KERNEL and Xorg-7.7-3d extensions loaded before "startx"

Yes for Xorg-7.7-3d, no for graphics-KERNEL.
After loading graphics-KERNEL, the binary blender has launched.

However, the lack of OpenImageIO library could become a problem for the users.

@blackfox1, try it out 

Code: [Select]

tce-load -i expat2.tcz libGL.tcz libXi.tcz libXrender.tcz glu.tcz python graphics-KERNEL Xorg-7.7-3d


[blackfox1]

Sorry, I`m newbee in linuxex, and just second day at TCL. So tell me please how I can use these Xorg/gr-kernel...

[polikuo]

I've figured out the missing dependencies. 

You need flash for this. (getFlash.tcz)

Test environment: TC 8.2, 64-bit, boot with "base".

Dependencies:

Code: [Select]

flash.tcz
glu.tcz
graphics-KERNEL.tcz
Xorg-7.7-3d.tcz
expat2.tcz
libGL.tcz
libXi.tcz
libXrender.tcz

Note that the official blender executable package (blender-2.79-linux-glibc219-x86_64.tar.bz2) comes with a "libGLU.so.1".
You can link the lib to your file system if you want to omit "glu.tcz" from the list above.

Recommended extras:

Code: [Select]

aterm.tcz
openbox-config.tcz
mylocale.tcz
