There is a separate ism containing the cliptexture data. Maybe
you didn't install it. (Performer_demo.data.clipdata) It's not
installed by default. You also have to run make inside the
hunter directory to convert the data into a useable form.

Problem pinning memory is no big deal; you need to run as root to
get rid of that. Bagging on bogus load is bad; I can't remember if
you said you were running 2.1. In 2.2, those problems should be
completely gone.

It should be in /usr/share/Performer/src/sample/C/clipfly
There is also asdfly and perfly. Clipfly has more cliptexture
controls on it. (Actually clipfly may not have been around for
2.1, but perfly should work just fine).

I don't know as much about that; maybe zhz can help you on the ASD
issues.
