Title: headless version of mandelbulber ?
Post by: ker2x on May 13, 2010, 01:11:38 AM
Could you please try to do a headless version of mandelbulber ? (without GTK and anything GUI and X11 related lib).

The idea is :
- create some parameter files using the gtk version.
- upload them to one of my octocore linux server at work
- compute
- download the jpg
- enjoy \o/

i planed to try it myself ... but i have a problem to understand the code (see previous post)

thank you :)

It is very good idea. It will open some ways of use this program. I will try to do it. It should be not too difficult.

I made something like this. Now Mandelbulber can work without X11 in command-lime mode. However you have to have installed GTK libraries, but program in NO-GUI mode doesn't use any function from this library. Using command-line arguments you can load parameter file and render image or animation. Please download latest version of Mandelbulber: http://www.fractalforums.com/mandelbulber/mandelbulber-0-85/
