Installation:
tar xzf spdbv3.x-Linux.tar.gz
cd SPDBV_DISTRIBUTION
./install.sh
If you have problems installing spdbv, see "FAQ: Installing Swiss Pdb Viewer" for technical details. If you are using remote display (which is not recommended), please note that OpenGL/glut must be installed on the remote machine.
Please, note that the keys and shortcuts will best match the user guide for the Mac version, not for the PC version. However, the Control-Key is mapped to the right Alt Key. The middle mouse button can be used to move the molecule, and the right mouse button can be used to zoom in/out.
The Linux version is a port of the Macintosh version done using a preliminary release of Latitude for Linux kindly made available by Metrowerks Inc. We wish to thank Kevin Buetner for his support, and Greg Galanos for allowing us to release a version of Swiss-PdbViewer that makes use of Latitude.
