I have not tried building this for Mandrake 9.1 yet.

If Mandrake has backported the nptl thread library into the kernel and 
glibc like Redhat 9.0 does, then it is not going to work.

The nptl threads from the 2.5.x kernel use segment registers that the 
nVIDIA driver's opengl code uses.  The collision is double-plus ungood.

If it is a similar issue (and like I said, I don't know if Mandrake has 
done this in 9.1) then you will have a problem.

I will be ordering my copy of 9.1 after payday.
