A couple things

2004-12-16, 14:52

I went to the Mlucas page to get the non-PC version of the souce but the link seems to be bad. Also, I see that there are not currently pre-compiled binaries for Solaris (Sparc or x86). I have access to a fair number of Sun boxes and would be willing to compile the sources if there's an interest in having me do so.

Certainly. I did a lot of compiling and building for my dog-slow Ultra 5 about a year ago. That was with 2.7c and 2.8 is reputed to be faster. It would be nice to see what a precompiled version can do. BTW, you can also root around in the ftp directory if the link is broken. i.e., remove the README.html from the URL and take a look.

Me too.

I've got access to a dozen boxes. Can't get admin rights to the boxes. All they do right now is collect dust.

Do you need admin rights to start programs there?

What to definitely need is an admin allowing you to run gimps on the computers...
