Ubuntu Dapper - 'scn could not be opened' error
I have XSI 5.11 running on dapper 6.06.1 LTS.
I've solved the seg faults on startup, and it seems to run very nicely apart from two crippling problems.
1) consistent 'scn could not be opened error' at the 'Loading environment... 65%" stage.
2) segfaults on MERGE scenes.
The only error during installation is 'Error: Creating libgcc_s.so symbolic link'
So close yet so far...
Has any one come any closer to a solution for this insanely irritating problem?
Below are all the steps i've taken to get this far, if anybody can think of anything I haven't tried, or actually has XSI opening scenes in Dapper, please help!
HARDWARE: Intel Xeon CPU 3.60GHz , 2GB RAM , Nvidia Quadro FX 3400

Video Drivers
The latest Nvidia drivers caused XSI to segfault on start up. Installing the 7676 as certified on the XSI site XSI site fixed the problem.
The driver installer had to be patched to compile on 2.6.16 kernel. Patch is here for any interested.
