Re: [PyMOL] debian: error in opening pymol
Thanks a lot Robert. The GUI opens now but with the following error given below. I can load a molecule and perform basic operations though. Do I need to install anything more or do anything else to get rid of the error?

Re: [PyMOL] debian: error in opening pymol
This is probably more of a installation/debian problem than a pymol problem. I would say that somehow the freeglut3 package is not installed on your system. apt-get install freeglut3 should solve it. However the Pymol package depends on freeglut3 so there might be more wrong with your system. try apt-get -f install to search for broken dependensies. How did you install pymol? Otherwise install manually from a downloaded .tgz from the pymol homepage. That way you'll also get the newest version. Esben __ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
