Stellarium

[Ganymede12]

I tried to download Stellarium to my computer but every time I try It comes up saying 500 internal error.

Does anyone know what the problem is and if there's a way to get around it?

A 500 error means there's a problem with the web server the files are on.

Going to have to try later I suspect.

Don't worry, I've got it now. Thanks for the help.

As long as we are talking about Stellarium, I wonder why my desktop computer mouse slows down to fits and jerks whenever I try to run the program ( impossible to move to a target ) while my laptop works just fine ? ? ?

The mouse in question is a USB 2 mouse, while the laptop uses a touchpad on the skirt in front of the keyboard to move the pointer around. Anybody else have the problem? Would changing back to a standard corded mouse help? Sorry to hijack the thread.

JimStan, have you tried running the 'No OpenGL2' version in the 'All Programs/Stellarium' folder?

Is there any way to adjust the ocular view to make it more magnified? You look at Saturn with it and you can't see the rings!
