Hi all

So my pc is back online after it passed away recently :-) but now I have a 
different problem (don't worry, it's not the Metakit compiling problem again.)

Here's a short summary of my system : 
AMD 1000 MHz
256MB RAM
Leadtek NVIDIA Geforce 2 MX64
OS : Redhat 7.2 Enigma

Ok, so I tested my system on Linux before compiling Flightgear (to sort out 
the display card issues).   I tried to play TUX Racer (opengl game that comes 
with Redhat), and got framerates of about 1 frame/second.  I went to NVIDIA's 
website, downloaded and installed the correct drivers, and now I don't know 
what the frame rates are anymore (easily above 30 frames/second).

Now that's a clear indication that my display card is working mighty fine, as 
well as OpenGL and all that fancy stuff, so I compiled Flightgear.  
Everything went well without any problems (quite impressed guys, you do 
excellent developing). When at last I tried to run Flightgear :

./fgfs --fg-root=/usr/local/FlightGear

it gave me the following :

GLUT : Fatal Error in fgfs : could not open display :

Can anyone please help me ?
