#!/bin/bash # $Id$ # # # To use this script you need # - a Linux 2.4 system with libc 2.2.* and at least XFree86 4.1 # - the valgrind debugger (http://developer.kde.org/~sewardj/) # - lots of memory (RAM + swap space > 600MB!) and # - a fast computer =or= a lot of patience. # # It is useful (but not required) to compile FlightGear without # any optimizations (-O0 without -funroll-loops etc.). Otherwise # the debug messages might not seem to make sense in some cases. # # The sample suppression file is designed for a SuSE 7.1 system # with Linux 2.4.18, XFree86 4.2.0 and a 3dfx card. Don't use it # as it is, but create your own!
