Hello

Has anyone of you guys any info about the combination Linux+Maya?

Is a good combo or a bad one (compared to windows+maya)?

How about the linux ver. of maya is it the same as for windows?

I'm wondering because later this week linux will probably get installed on my computer.

I'd imagine there's little to no differences. Have you checked Alias' site?

Linux, mac osx and irix are all unix based platforms and maya is available for all of them. I think Maya is most troublefree on a Red Hat linux but I believe it could be ran on other distributions as well if all required libraries and such are installed/configured. If there was more A/V apps available for linux i'd forget about windows completely...
