Hi all,

I have been trying to install the Accelerad on Linux. I copied the accelerad folder to /usr/local and edited ~/.profile file.

Then I replaced the original programs of Radiance. However, when I ran the 'test_accelerad_rpict.sh' , there occured some errors as follows:

The file 'rpict.ptx' is located in /usr/local/lib/ray, 'ray' is the lib folder of Radiance.

I guess there is something wrong in my installation procedure. Any help or advice is much appreciated!

Can you run `echo $RAYPATH` to view your entire RAYPATH environment variable? The .ptx files, including rpict.ptx, need to be located in one of the directories listed in the RAYPATH. If /usr/local/lib/ray/ is not in RAYPATH, then the files there won't be found.
