Linux Track X Y Z

Postby tsb47 » Tue Jul 15, 2014 10:51 am

Hi all,

I recently installed Linuxtrack on my Ubuntu 14.04 box running bleeding edge fgfs (3.2).

I'm got it mostly working following the install instructions on the Google code website.

But I'm having three problems I'd appreciate help with:
  1. X and Y translations do not work.
  2. Z is mapped to field-of-view; I would rather have this mapped to Z translation
  3. When I run linuxtrack using a plain script the remaining tracking works. But when I run the script using a launcher, it doesn't. Instead I get the following error:
    Code: Select all
    Nasal runtime error: insert into non-container
      at /home/tom/fgfs/next/install/flightgear/fgdata/Nasal/view.nas, line 215
      called from: /home/tom/fgfs/next/install/flightgear/fgdata/Nasal/LinuxTrack/linuxtrack.nas, line 232

My launcher file is as follows:
Code: Select all
[Desktop Entry]
Version=3.2
Name=Flightgear
Comment=This is my comment
Exec=/home/tom/flightgear/flightgear.sh
Icon=/home/tom/flightgear/icon.png
Terminal=true
Type=Application
Categories=Utility;Application;


... and my script file is as follows:
Code: Select all
#!/bin/bash
export PATH=${PATH}:/opt/linuxtrack_0.0_130324/bin
ltr_pipe --output-net-udp --format-flightgear &
ltr_gui &
~/fgfs/next/run_fgrun.sh


Any help appreciated.

Cheers,


Tom
