Description
This is an OpenSCAD Model of minds SpiderBot. The servo positions are design parameters. So you can change them and watch the SpiderBot moving. There is also some infrastructure to animate the spiderbot using OpenSCADs animate view mode.
The most recent version of this model can be checked out from the svn repository:
svn.clifford.at/handicraft/2010/spiderbot/

Instructions

When I try to render using F6 (Design-

I also tried out with the last svn (r361, 2010-01-28 20:41:46 ).
The result is the same.
I use ubuntu 9.10, with an nvidia 96.43 driver, so no opengl 2.0 support (this is the latest driver what my notebooks video card support(nvidia geforce4 420Go (NV17)).
I have an another laptop with intel 4500MHD video card, but it is really buggy (half of my screen contains garbage)
I dont think it is related to this bug however.
