Hi

I posted earlier today a msg on the user list about issues with running
fgfs on FC5 (c enclosed copy) . After a little more research I found the
development list thread about FC5 and the freeglut 2.4.

So I tried the following rpm

flightgear/FlightGearSDL-0.9.10-0.FC.i386.rpm

<ftp://tallyho.bc.nu/pub/steve/flightgear/FlightGearSDL-0.9.10-0.FC.i386.rpm>

and I am getting the following error :


X Error of failed request: BadLength (poly request too large or
internal Xlib length error)
 Major opcode of failed request: 145 (GLX)
 Minor opcode of failed request: 29 ()
 Serial number of failed request: 826
 Current serial number in output stream: 826

Any ideas on how I can get fgfs running on FC5 ?

thx andy
