hi all, We still have this issue with building the documentation and running tests (https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?44478) that casues segfaults when the user is running with nvidia drivers. The documentation issue, I assume, comes form the attempt of printing images to files without rendering on the screen. Would it be possible to give a flag on the make file to disable off-screen printing? Of course, if possible i would try to do it and submit the patch.
How about rather than just disable off-screen printing with a flag, make it a reconfigurability flag, e.g., --with-gnuplot-offscreen. Or something that will make Octave use a different graphics toolkit. I tried a couple nights ago to place an .octaverc file that changes the graphics toolkit in the various build directories where octave-run is launched...didn't work.
That, or fix the issue with nVidia off-screen printing. Dan
