Description dm 2014-08-23 21:30:51 UTC
There is no display when editing in the molecular editor.  Established molecules in /usr/share/kde4/apps/kalzium/data/molecules do not display either.  Using Ubuntu 14.04 Desktop (32-bit)

Does standalone Avogadro work?

avogadro_initialization.txt

Hi Christoph,

I installed avogadro on the Ubuntu 14.04 LTS Desktop computer and its
editor appears to be working and displaying normally.  I was able to
create a molecule from the start and I was able to load an existing
saved .cml molecule. 

I've attached 'avogadro_initialization.txt' which is a copy of what
appeared as avogadro started from the command line--reporting what it could.

I then retried running Kalzium but I couldn't get the molecular editor
portion of Kalzium to work at displaying anything.  However, apparently
the editor was able to report statistics for the molecule I tried to
load showing its formula and molecular weight...but no image.  So it's
trying to use the XML-like .cml page for the molecule at least. 
[ethane.cml indicated C2H6 and a M.W. of 30.069 u.]

I've also attached 'kalzium_initialization.txt' which is a copy of what
appeared as kalzium started from the command line--reporting what it
could.  Hopefully it sheds some clues on what the issue might be with
Kalzium.

I hope this helps.

Best regards,

Dave Mawdsley

Works for me on Kubuntu 14.10 with

$ avogadro --version
