Setting up Blender and DrQueue

Support Basics & Interface
1

Anybody have experience setting up Blender and DrQueue? I’m a windows/dos guy setting this up on linux (LSF cluster actually). So, I’m learning linux (not too bad since I have a little experience) and DrQueue (real bad, documentation really sux).

But OMG this cluster rocks! 128 nodes x 2.8 GHz X dual-cpu X dual-core = 512 cpu’s (effectively). :Z

I’m tired of waiting 4 days for my renders…prolly 4 minutes now. I’ll keep you posted as I get this going. I posted at blender.org to see if the developers wanted to work with me and set up an LSF platform for Blender. I think it’s a great opportunity.

Did you try the documentation at their wiki?

http://www.drqueue.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/InstallationManual

looks like installing from source shouldn’t be too hard…

Not sure how much the window documentation can help with Linux.
