Platform builds for the experimental BE-v0

Yesterdays version seems to run fine after an initial glitch, which caused a crash when pressing the History button (note to self: avoid last minute changes after midnight).

Here are two builds for other platforms based on BE-v0b

  • Mac OS X: Barney says: "Ok, me being a full-prim avatar most of the time (and banging on prims to make prim avatars to sell at Grendel's), this was far too sweet to read :). The mac build of the BE-v version is at: (link) and so far it looks fine - no weirdnesses to report and no asstachments, either."
  • Linux: Robin C says: "Although i am not releasing direct builds of your viewer as i was a few months ago (due to time restrictions) I am using a good percentage of the patches in the Debian packaging effort. I am paying particular attention to bug/crash and leak fixes (which i have just applied to 1.18.6.1), so its kind of half a Nicholaz version :-). You can at last apt-get a secondlife! on Debian Linux (and its pretty stable). If anyone is interested the 1/2 a Nicholaz version can be found in an apt repository, details at (link), 32-bit and 64-bit builds."
Thanks Barney and Robin!

I always had a strong belief about shoes. Their place is on the floor. :-)

Shoes?! Having your long black hair up your crotch is the worst, I'd rather be barefoot then bald and ...nevermind ... not a pretty mental pic.
Thanks as always Nicholez!
We are having the logged out on teleports lately though, that's SL annoying, 'tel hells'.

Hi, I have four buttons on the lower left side of the Profile window. They appear to be Linden Admin buttons of some kind. They only show up in your version. Not in the standard version or the First Look one.

Kathy, you probably have the admin-mode enabled at the bottom of the debug menu.

I am using the v0 now on IMac for some time. When using it a longer time, I get a lockup and and kernel panic. I switched off OpenGL to see, if that causes it, but got a kernel panic today again.

Now I am trying the u version again as I do not remember the kernel panics happening with it already.

Else I love the nicholaz editions and do not want to miss them.
