Hello,

Can you help me build opendental 5.5 under my linux box? (slackware 12.0).
I paste below the errors I get after running make.

P.D.
Also, I have one comment :while running opendental 5.5 compiled on a windows machine (and run under wine from linux): the tooth chart fails to display properly the various procedures on the teeth, like crown, extraction, root canal treatment, the various fillings... etc.

Switch to the 2D tooth chart and it will work better. http://www.open-dent.com/manual/graphics.html

As for building it on Linux, you'll have to ask someone else. I prefer to build on Windows. Although the errors do seem to refer simply to missing dlls.

Hey,

Thank you very much for the quick and kind reply. I will give the 2d tooth chart a try. As of the linux build issue, I will keep digging.
If you or anyone alse still has any suggestion of the best method of running opendental on a linux box, will be greatly appreciated.

Regards,
Radu Pop

You've seen our Linux page, right? I build on Windows, and copy the files to a Linux directory. It's really easy.

Yes, this is how I get it to work, but still having some trouble with screen refresh and texts being cut off at some points. Also I thought the tooth chart was broken too. So that's why I was trying a different approach, that beeing building directly with mono. Anyway, built under windows and run under linux with mono generally works acceptable, except the small problems I mentioned above. May be others too. Let me know if you're interested or I can help in any way.

Radu
