Recently, when I log in using the Linux client my avatar is not displaying properly. I can see hair, shoes and eyes, but that's all. I have been using the Windows client for most of the past week, and now I've come back to Linux I'm not the man I used to be - it's like the Hollow Man! Any thoughts on how I might fix this?

Edit appearance > Quit > Save All.
Failing that, go to windows client (running on windows - not wine), Edit appearance > Quit > Save All.. Then back into Linux with the native client and all should be back to normal.

Yup, although in a few cases (not all) I have actually had to make an adjustment within APPEARANCES before things got back to normal. --Val |

Hmm. Thanks for those bits of advice.
Actually I managed to fix it myself by switching off the Avatar Vertex Program option (I also put Avie detail up to top as well, which is what I've got set on Windows).
Now my only problem is that the music stop/play buttons don't appear in Linux SL. The movie ones do.
Does everyone else find that Linux SL runs very hot? My CPU temperature rises by a good 10-15 degrees C using the client. Athlon64 3000, GeForce 6200, FC 4.

Sound and video are not yet supported in the alpha client for SL on Linux.
As far as temp goes, I don't notice any change from normal usage but my system has a pretty crazy cooling system.

I had temperatures of 75° C at one stage  even AFTER I bought a high-performance fan/heatsink for the CPU. It seems the warm air from the power supply was getting sucked in again by the CPU fan  I now have a piece of card between the Power Supply Air Outlet and the System Air Intake (directly adjacent), and my temperatures has gone down to 65° C. And that is correct, what ninjafoo said - SL WILL get your CPU as hot as it gets - I noticed (not any more) a temperature rise of 10° C when SL was running. Now it is stable at 60° without SL, and 65° maximum with SL. It is cool here at the moment though - ambient temperature 18° C, system temperature 33° C.

Thanks for the responses on the temperature issue. I've seen my CPU go to 70C and at that point I hurriedly logged out of SL! Maybe I need to investigate the cooling situation in more detail, thanks for the tips.
I'd completely missed the fact that sound isn't supported. Bummer.
