Frequently Asked Questions About Installation
I am getting "/usr/bin/display: No such file or directory", when trying to display an image. What should I do?
Linux version of Davinci uses ImageMagick "display" command by default. Most likely ImageMagick is not installed. The solution is to either install ImageMagick or to change the $DV_VIEWER environment variable to your favorite Image Viewer. To set the variable you can either set it on your system shell, or better in the Davinci shell by
putenv("DV_VIEWER","/path/to/your/favorite/imageviewer")
Plotting command "xplot" doesn't work. It dies silently. What should I do?
Most likely gnuplot is not installed on your system. Try installing the gnuplot. If it is installed, make sure that it is installed under /usr/bin/gnuplot. You can override the path by setting the environment variable GPLOT_CMD
putenv("GPLOT_CMD","/path/to/your/gnuplot")
Make sure you set this variable before any gnuplot command is invoked.
