blender issues on debian amd64

[jhu]

for some reason blender locks up whenever i move the camera past a certain point. doesn't matter whether the version installed is from the debian packages or off the blender main website. the program loads fine. i can move objects around, but moving the camera past a certain point causes x window to lock up (although i can still ssh into the computer). anyone encounter this before?

No, but it's more likely a problem with the non-free nvidia or fglrx driver and not blender itself if you're using one of them.

i'm using the opensource ati driver

Then you might want to start poking around the xorg bugzilla and mailing lists.

 

[jhu]

apparently it's not a new bug. oh well

Look at that, you missed the bug's anniversary by just about a week. =)
