I have attached the Vruiverbose readout. Not exactly sure what is on the readout but maybe on of you can see what I am doing wrong. I have linked the file for you to review.
VruiVerbose readout through terminal.

Assuming you have Linux and the display driver correctly installed, start fresh from Step 3 here: http://idav.ucdavis.edu/~okreylos/ResDev/SARndbox/SoftwareInstallation.html
This will install Vrui 4.5, which has the script executor built in (old versions of Vrui didn’t have this yet).

edit – i see you do have 4.5
One small thing – your button numbers should probably start at Button0
A second thing – the file ~/src/SARndbox-2.5/etc/SARndbox.cfg should not be the same as ~/.config/Vrui-4.5/Applications/SARndbox.cfg ; it is a place you can put options like this:# Configuration file for SARndbox application # Copyright (c) 2016 Oliver Kreylos section SARndbox section Camera # Configuration parameters for Kinect v1 compressDepthFrames true smoothDepthFrames false endsection waterTableSize (400,300) waterSpeed 1.0 waterMaxSteps 30 rainStrength 0.25 evaporationRate 0.0 elevationRange (-40,25) rainElevationRange (25,100) endsectionAlso, a few more troubleshooting things to try:
1) Script Executor. The computer freezing when trying to run a script in my experience has been due to the path of the script not being correct – it tries to run a script that isn’t there, and the machine locks up.
– Test the script executor manually: With the program running, navigate a terminal to the ~/src/SARndbox-2.5/ folder (press F11 to exit fullscreen if needed) and type./ToggleWeather.sh– This will run the script manually. Similarly you could try running a specific script in your ~/src/SARndbox-2.5/scripts/ folder
– It’s a little strange that you don’t get the script executor as an option in the menu.2) USB encoder. One way to test whether the USB encoder is working is to see if you can assign a function (eg. global water etc) while the program is running, by simply pressing the buttons. First you need to comment out the button assignments in ~/.config/Vrui-4.5/Applications/SARndbox.cfg like so:
section Vrui section Desktop #Disable the Screen Saver inhibitScreenSaver true inputDeviceAdapterNames += (HIDAdapter) section HIDAdapter inputDeviceAdapterType HID inputDeviceNames (USBEncoder) section USBEncoder name USBEncoder deviceVendorProductId 0079:0006 trackingDeviceName Mouse endsection endsection section MouseAdapter mouseIdleTimeout 5.0 endsection section Window windowFullscreen true endsection section Tools toolClassNames += (ScriptExecutorTool) # section DefaultTools # section WaterTool # toolClass GlobalWaterTool # bindings ((USBEncoder, Button0, Button1)) # endsection # section ChangeWeather # toolClass ScriptExecutorTool # bindings ((USBEncoder, Button2)) # executablePathName ~/src/SARndbox-2.5/ToggleWeather.sh # arguments () # endsection # endsection endsection endsection endsectionIf when you press a button you get a menu, the USBEncoder is working.
