The collected works of vtech

I confirm functional Wings3D on IRIX!
I followed the guide provided by dsolaz with version 0.98.36 and it works.
More: I prepared a self-contained package (no deps, 8MB tgz) and tested it on Tezro/dualR16k800/V12/6.5.29m, Fuel/R16k700/V10/6.5.29m and Octane/R12k300/ESI/6.5.26m
I've tested one more configuration (Octane/R12k/300/V6) and found one bug: It works only for the user root. I'm not sure why.
If you want and can test it yourself, download it from here:

(If you guess, that I created that webpage in 2 minutes, you're right :-) )

Is there some error message or something? Maybe "failed to create thread: operation not permitted"?
The system-scope POSIX thread issue is a problem only if you are not root.

It's some other problem, it looks like LD_LIBRARY_PATH is ignored for non-root, or more probably changed by erlang on startup.
See yourself, if you can.
This is the error message:
Driver Failed {error,{open_error,"93719:/home/tekavi/wings3d-0.98.36/bin/beam: rld: Fatal Error: Cannot Successfully map soname 'libgcc_s.so.1' under any of the filenames /usr/vtech/sdl/lib/libgcc_s.so.1:/usr/lib32/libgcc_s.so.1:/usr/lib32/internal/libgcc_s.so.1:/lib32/libgcc_s.so.1:/opt/lib32/libgcc_s.so.1: "}}

libgcc_s.so.1 is in lib/esdl-0.96.0626/priv together with SDL and sdl_driver and LD_LIBRARY_PATH is set accordingly

It didn't help. LD_LIBRARYN32_PATH is used before LD_LIBRARY_PATH, but none should be ignored.
If I test it using ldd, LD_LIBRARY_PATH works, but then it's silently ignored by erl
