I don't know - but you might use 'rpm' to find out. This might looke
somewhat like this (whis is my workplace):
quickstep: 17:55:29 ~> rpm -qa | grep -i glu
mesaglut-3.4.2-42
xf86glu-4.1.0-45
mesaglut-devel-3.4.2-42
xf86glu-devel-4.1.0-45
Or:
quickstep: 17:57:02 ~> rpm -qa | grep -i mesa
mesaglut-3.4.2-42
mesasoft-3.4.2-42
mesa-3.4.2-42
mesaglut-devel-3.4.2-42
mesa-devel-3.4.2-42
Or:
quickstep: 17:57:18 ~> rpm -qa | grep -i plib
plib-1.4.2-30
plib-examples-1.4.1-32
If you have these, you'r almost done. If you have this one:
quickstep: 17:57:58 ~> rpm -qa | grep -i flight
FlightGear-0.7.8-15
.... then you _are_ done ;-)
On SuSE-7.3 you need at least mesa, mesa-devel, mesasoft, xf86_glx, xf86glu,
xf86glu-devel, mesaglut, mesaglut-devel, plib - and all the compiler stuff
like gcc, automake, autoconf, libtool and so on.
Most of the OpenGL packages can be found in the 'x' and 'x3d' series,
compiler stuff lives in 'd'.

It will be part of the 'Getting Started'. Yep, I believe it would.
Although it will _not_ be a guide how to use distribution specific package
managers. For this you might want to read the excellent handbook that comes
with SuSE,
Martin.
