We are experiencing a problem with protein display in DSV 2.5 under Linux (Ubuntu), which seems to be relat4ed to the problem described here.
However, the solution provided in the thread does not work for us. Several people here on my site are experiencing the same problems with different versions of Ubuntu and different graphics cards - probably all of them unsupported.
To repeat the problem: display of surfaces and solid ribbons looks great as long as the structure is 'on the move', but once you let go, the display becomes wrong. On some computers, it is just the color that changes, on others the whole display is messed up.
The suggested solution was to disable hardware acceleration. This does not work, as the acceleration box is grayed out and cannot be changed. I don't know if this is because we are running linux, or because we are running a newer version of DSV.
Any idea what could be done? Many thanks in advance for any suggestion,
BW, Kay
