Today the stars look same as the attachment of previous mail. <br><br>Regards<br>Laurad.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, Apr 8, 2011 at 6:01 PM, Laudis Radium <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:laudis.radium@gmail.com">laudis.radium@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

<br>After installing and running kstars, I found the following. <br>1. If I use QPainter, the software runs very slow (hangs). OpenGL mode works fine. I have kept star density very low (about 10%)<br>
2. In OpenGL mode, stars looked very weird.

<br>3. I cant see globular clusters. Ex: If I search for M13, it slews to the position of M13 but there is nothing there. Just empty space. But I can see galaxies and nebulae. <br>
<br>I have attached the screenshot of my kstars window (before installing the packages mentioned in bold letters). <br><br>Here is what I see on terminal when I run kstars.<br><br>laurad@laurad-desktop:~$ $KDEDIR/bin/kstars<br>
