| 15 | 4 | Kristján Oddsson | When running into the error "Could not open window" on linux one needs to change his config file to load the @pandagles@ display instead of the @pandagl@ display. To do this you edit the file @/etc/Config.prc@, comment out the line @load-display pandagl@ and uncomment the line @load-display pandagles@. |

| 17 | Note that the cartoon shader did not work on the linux boxes when they were added, but would work on windows boxes. This lead us to believe that it was due to these changes and changing them back resulted in the shaders working without any hiccups so far. |

| 21 | On Arch Linux, one of the developers had the problem of only getting a black screen when running the virtarium code. After hours of reading forums, OpenGl or Panda3D ones he decided to take a screenshot using the linux utility @scrot@. The attatched file attachment:"2012-11-19_14:30.png" shows the issue. However, a second after taking the screenshot the issue resolved leading to developer to link the two events. |

| 23 | If faced with a black screen when loading up the virtarium code, try taking a screenshot before trying out other things. |
