[Bf-committers] Orange DVD and the Blender binary

[Ton Roosendaal]

Hi,

Which linux render crashes? The most horrible case we had was with  
threads, which was reported to be solved by using pthread instead of  
SDL. Afaik, all our graphics renders fine in Linux now.

What is still remaining is a mysterious non-repeatable crash in ATI  
OpenGL drivers... cannot be redone consistantly. It seems to be related  
to drawing tile-scanlines while rendering.
