- \section1 Installation Issues
-
- \section2 Installing the Source Package on Unix systems
-
- \list
-
- \o If you download a Zip source package, you will need to convert
- Windows-style line endings (CR/LF) to Unix-style line-endings (LF) when
- you uncompress the package. To do this, give the "-a" option when you
- run the "unzip' command.
-
- \o If you fail to supply the "-a" option when unzipping the package, you
- will see the following error message when you attempt to execute the
- configure command:
- "bash: ./configure: /bin/sh^M: bad interpreter: No such file or directory"
-
- \endlist
-
- \section2 Installing on Mac OS X 10.6 "Snow Leopard"
-
- \list
-
- \o There are two workarounds, either disable spotlight for the target
- drive during the install, or do a custom install where you deselect
- documentation and examples. Run the installer again as a full
- install to get the documentation and examples installed.

- \section1 Issues with Third Party Software
-
- \section2 X11
-
- \list
- \o There is a bug in the 169.xx NVIDIA drivers on certain GeForce 8 series
- cards that is triggered by the OpenGL paint engine when using QPainter
- on a QGLWidget to draw paths and polygons. Some other painting
- operations that end up in the path fallback are affected as well. The
- bug causes the whole X server to repeatedly hang for several seconds at
- a time.
- \o There is an issue with NVIDIA's 9xxx driver series on X11 that causes a
- crash in cases where there are several \l{QGLContext}s and the extended
- composition modes are used (the composition modes between and including
- QPainter::CompositionMode_Multiply and
- QPainter::CompositionMode_Exclusion). This affects the composition mode
- demo in Qt 4.5, for example. The crash does not occur in newer versions
- of the drivers.
- \endlist
-
- \section2 Windows
-
- \list
-
- \o When using version 6.14.11.6921 of the NVIDIA drivers for the GeForce
- 6600 GT under Windows XP, Qt applications which use drag and drop will
- display reduced size drag and drop icons when run alongside
- applications that use OpenGL. This problem can be worked around by
- reducing the level of graphics acceleration provided by the driver, or
- by disabling hardware acceleration completely.
-
- \o With NVIDIA GeForce 7950 GT (driver version 6.14.11.7824), a fullscreen
- QGLWidget flickers when child widgets are shown/hidden. The workaround
- for this is to use \l{QWidget::}{setGeometry()} with a width/height 1
- pixel bigger than your geometry and call \l{QWidget::}{show()}.
-
- \o A bug in the Firebird database can cause an application to crash when
- \c{fbembed.dll} is unloaded. The bug is fixed in version 2.5.
-
- \o On Windows 7, resizing windows is slower than on Vista/Xp. This is because
- the gesture initialization process (required for native gesture support)
- currently calls winId() on widgets, which causes whole widget hierarchies
- to use native window handles. This slows down resizing.
-
- \o Compile errors with Intel C++ Compiler.\br
- There seems to be a bug in the Intel compiler with respect to
- over-agressive inlining of code.
- The problem will manifest itself during the link phase of QtGui where
- it fails with the error that it cannot find QObjectData::~QObjectData().
- See \l{http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTBUG-5145} for updates on this
- bug.
- Also, due to some bugs in WebKit, the QtScript and QtWebKit modules
- will not compile.
- See \l{http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTBUG-6297} for a
- workaround for QtScript.
-
- \o Compile errors with Microsoft Visual C++ compiler. \br
- There seems to be a bug in the Microsoft compiler when compiling with O2
- optimization level in 64 bit.
- This problem will result in crashes in QAbstractItemView::viewOptions().
- See \l{http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTBUG-11445} for updates on this
- bug.

-
- \section2 Mac OS X
-
- \list
-
- \o If a sheet is opened for a given window, clicking the title bar of that
- window will cause it to flash. This behavior has been reported to Apple
- (bug number 5827676).
-
- \endlist
