Graphics Error...Help needed!
 
I installed Fluent on a new computer and when i start Fluent, read a mesh file and want to diplay e.g. the grid, the window which opens is completely white and it reads the following message in the Fluent window: Error: Fluent received a fatal signal (ILLEGAL INSTRUCTION) Error Object: () does anyone know what to do? Thank you very much in advance! Stefan

Stefan, You may have some OpenGL problems. I know I have that same problem when working with our UNIX emulators. If you are using a unix box, you might want to export the graphics as x-windows. Use this command in your command line

%fluent -driver X11
