CED Viewer crashes whith input

[GarcaHec]

I have been following this tutorial:

https://agenda.linearcollider.org/event/7520/contributions/38806/attachments/31480/47409/gaede_ilcsoft_tutorial.pdf 

When I come to the point of using glced or ced2go (slide 22) to visualize events, the commands run without error and I get the expected window with the detector geometry and the events displayed. However, the moment I rotate the 3D image or I hover the mouse over the menu the application crashes.

• Goal: Display events for analysis.

Hi,
thanks for reporting.
Your error looks like a server / client issue. OpenGL is capricious in terms of client / server OS compatibility, in particular when it comes to which side renders the scene.

Are you running the event display through ssh ?
If yes, what is the client OS ?

I guess the server OS where the software is installed is the one you mentioned in the issue header (Centos 7).

I am running the display locally in my computer (no ssh and with the OS mentioned) using ced2go from the /cvmfs/ installation.

So you have installed CVMFS on your machine and mounted the ilc.desy.de endpoint ?

If so, I'm not sure your Centos7 will be compatible with our SL6 deployment on CVMFS, in particular when it comes to OpenGL drivers from CVMFS versus from your machine.

@andresailer @petricm Any idea ?

[GarcaHec]

Yes. In particular I have the Centos7 provided by CERN here: http://linux.web.cern.ch/linux/centos7/
