Hi,
   I have a question about an error message I get from megapov 0.7.
Rendering a very large mesh2 megapov apparently runs fine but once in a
while gives an error message:

all determinants too small

What does it mean and do I need to worry ?

I recently compiled megapov on Irix 6.5  and am running it on an Octane.

In addition to that it seems very slow. I don't know whether this is a
related error or whether mesh2 can get slow.
I have about 40000 triangles and for each vertex I define a texture (
but there not 120000 textures - just about 5 )

Thanks for any hints.

   Lothar
