[Ubuntu] No planet textures in Celestia 1.5.1


Recommended Posts

Every other body with the exception of earth, are just blank spheres. with their "respective" colors that is.

Is this a bug in 1.5.1 or just my gfx? I'm running dual Planar1711M monitors on an Nvidia Quadro NVS 285 card by the way. Here's my xorg.conf

I just fired it up here, and just have white spheres for all the planets (except Earth) too. :unsure:

Let me look into this, because all the textures were there when I last used Celestia.

EDIT:

The problem is that Debian seems to have moved the textures to "nonfree". Not sure of the reason, nor do I care.

Reference: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/c...tia/+bug/291681

Solution: sudo apt-get install celestia-common-nonfree

    • I tried to get the latest secureboot certificate for my old Dell 7010 Optiplex machine.   I restored the default settings to Secure Boot. Big mistake.  Now when secure boot is on. The machine doesn't boot and complains about no booting devises.  The computer's secure boot can't find where to boot and the information apparently has to be entered manually.  Secureboot's settings are now years old and it can't find a new configuration.  What could be done here? There are plenty of files to choose from in the secureboot menu, but I don't know what to put there for each of the four Windows 11 upgraded from 10..... originally who knows what (used machine) without secureboot it booting normally  
    • I see you're still rocking that g700 mouse
    • They need to follow the standard for AAA game but they will go at lowest level for triple a game because will sell more, earn kudos and the milk it for years anyway. look how much they milked gta 5 and how they milked the original 3 - San Andreas and vice city. it is probably going to be a fun game but then they allowed someone to remake classics that somehow were more broken and worse then original i hope they don’t ###### up this one!!!
    • In addition to the "sidebar app list" and "Collections" features, Microsoft will also deprecate the "Drop" feature. Before you publish this news and credit another site, here is the original source: https://x.com/i/status/2067838711870439583 .
