I can think of several easier ways to deal with this problem: 1. Export from SYBYL and open in Chem3D. Then export from Chem3D to ChemDraw format. 2. Contact us about our upcoming support of SMILES in ChemDraw 4.0. This would remove several steps in your process. 3.

Motif has been ported to Linux/Xfree by Metrolink and there are at least two companies offering OpenGL. Check e.g. www.li.org or www.linux.org - they might have links to those companies. OpenGL is - as far as I understand - VERY slow. The implementations on Linux/Xfree are basically just emulators, i.e. they run on top of X11. Someone is working on a freeware implementation of Motif, but since I have strong feelings against Motif (looks too much like M$-Windows to me), I don't know the status of that project. > Comments in this area are welcomed, particularly updates to > previous discussions on this topic. I tried to compile GAMESS on a Linux box and that was easy - basically it compiled out-of-the-box. I wasn't extremely excited about the speed even though the study by Jorgensen et al. (in J. Comput. Chem. this summer) showed that a Pentium based computer is fast. On the other hand, I didn't dig into all the options of the compiler. BTW, GAMESS doesn't require Motif - at least not the computational part which is normally the primary interest. GAMESS supports parallel processing, so if you have more than one Linux box, you can run in parallel. The same is true for DLpoly (and Gromacs?). My experience with Fortran on Linux is that it works. I have tried both f2c and g77 but I haven't done any benchmarks (does someone have any info on that?). Linux is pretty much a 'standard' U**x, e.g. it follows the POSIX guidelines and implements SysV and BSD. I have never had any problems porting programs - well, maybe an old one written in K&R C, but even that can be solved.
