Re: DS20 under Linux

Maciej,

I have now run the Michael Richmond pipeline on one set of Vand I 
images.  It ran to completion with no errors.  It took about 3 hours on a 
1GHz Pentium 3 with 500 MByes of memory running Mandrake 8.1.  (I think it 
is a pentium 3).  I picked a pair of fairly dark sky images taken 
recently.  You may want to try it with Andrew's favorite dark images which 
I think are the first good pair in DS20.

The pair I selected had a higher star density.  I am trying to investigate 
problems with blending and the like.

I think I am worthless to help as I am trying to write code to look at the 
results.  ;^)
