Bug in FGx 2.10.0 for ubuntu?

Postby E-HEC » Wed Feb 27, 2013 9:41 pm

Hi folks,
I tried FGx on a ubuntu-system installed whith the download_and_compile.sh from this adress: http://www.gitorious.org/fg/fgmeta/blob ... compile.sh.
But everytime I tried to start fgfs whith FGx, fgfs crashed. I had a look at the command output that is listed in the following lines:

Code: Select all
"/home/christian/flightgear-2.10/install/fgfs/bin/fgfs" \
--lat=37.628177091563 \
--lon=-122.38080193222 \
--heading=208 \
--callsign=E-HEC \
--timeofday=noon \
--disable-real-weather-fetch \
--geometry=1024x768 \
--disable-splash-screen \
--aircraft=c172p \
--airport=KSFO \
--fg-root=/home/christian/flightgear-2.10/install/fgfs/fgdata \
--fg-scenery=/home/christian/flightgear-2.10/install/fgfs/fgdata/Scenery


As you can see, there is a command for the latitude and longitude as well as the airport. The doubled command for the position seems to cause the crash. I can copy the lines into a terminal and start fgfs if I remove the position or the airport.
I would be thankful if someone fix it, because apart from this FGx is a nice work.

Thanks,
Christian

I downloaded from git and it is working correctly, however the icon is very pixelated (16x16?) i have replaced all the icons with high resolution ones but it is still low res. What must I change?

Edit: I found the image it was using, /home/.local/share/icons I changed it to higher resolution one and now it looks fine.
