Bug (?) with cura 13.06.5 on linux

[viralata 78]

Hello all,

Coming back from hollidays, I wanted to see if I have better luck with the new version of Cura.

I found somewher this trick to make ite slice:

in a terminal, first type:

export LC_TIME=en_US.utf8

then type

cura

to launch it.

Now it slices, it is very fast indeed, but on my laptop it's not instant, and I like complex geometry... so I would definitely prefer a Slice button :-)

But then, it's the second time that the printer stop after several hours, thing that never happend with 13.04. I got this message:

 

Traceback (most recent call last):

I used to trust very much Cura and leave it to print for nights with no fear. Should I go back to 13.04, or anybody understands this error an can tell me what I should do.

There are 2 errors there. The first bit can safely be ignored (it's an exception by a bug by me. But it only means that the "upload use stats" does not work)

The part with ">>" is some other bug, not sure what, as it comes from the X window system. So could be a bug in your wxPython version.

Thanks for your quick answer. I tried a third time... let's see what happen.

Could not make my desktop fresh linuxmint15 install connect to the printer (added user to dialin, I don't remember if there is something else to do...) Please, please, why is it so annotying to make it work under linux ? I'm just so happy when it works that I'm affraid to update, as every time I have to find on the net new tricks to make it work.

Update: 3rd try and failure again...

Going back to cura 13.04 :-(

I get a similar error after printing for an hour or so. Happened two times so far. Now I will try using pronterface.

I have the same error again on my other computer, always at the same height approximately: no way to use 13.06.5 on linux for me
