have fun

I was asked how to apply the patch, here a very short howto:

First: the patch is to be considered as experimental and needs testing. Even though its using almost the same code as the original viewer, it could cause or trigger issues, if you are using it you are content with that.

- The most difficult part about compiling the viewer is to get cmake 2.4.8, thats the version you need to compile secondlife yourself.
- Then you need some things installed, see http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/User:Michelle2_Zenovka/cmake#Prerequisites_for_Linux for that (good thing to read the whole article,btw ty very much Michelle2 ).
- Get the viewer source, linux-libraries and artwork, http://svn.secondlife.com/trac/linden/browser/trunk/doc/asset_urls.txt has them all clickable.
- Unpack all and you'll have a new linden/ directory in [yourtree] with almost all you need.
- Download the http://jira.secondlife.com/secure/attachment/18608/pushtopaste.patch (the one mentioned in first post is a developer version) to that new linden directory, start a console and cd into it. Apply the patch using: patch -p0 < pushtopaste.patch
- Get and install fmod, see http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/User:Michelle2_Zenovka/cmake#Install_FMOD_API how to do that.
- cd to [yourtree]/linden/indra and run: ./develop.py
(this takes a little while)
- Finally cd to [yourtree]/linden/indra/viewer-linux-i686 and: make
(this takes a little longer)
- You'll find a tarball in [yourtree]/linden/indra/viewer-linux-i686/newview and a ready to use version in
[yourtree]/linden/indra/viewer-linux-i686/newview/packaged
