"the XO laptop cannot run any opengl stuff" -- that's cast-in-stone language. I'm currently using f7 builds rather than f9, but (just to show that it *will* run) I've installed a binary Linux application that was compiled to require opengl. I did 'yum install freeglut' to keep that application happy. (Not sure whether that particular application can actually *use* opengl -- it tells me that some application-specific-images are not present -- but the rest of that application works fine.) mikus _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
