Has anyone ever got flightgear to work on Red Hat?
Maybe there is an rpm file around somewhere?


I certainly had it running under 6.1 and 6.2, but that was a while
ago.  I'm now using Mandrake 8.2
Jon

I'm running it with RedHat 8.0. 


Does anyone know if RPM packages exist for RedHat?

Thanks,

Hi all,

	Wnen I upgraded my fastest machine to R.H (Pink Tie 9.0 from 
CheapBytes), FlightGear was most unhappy. After some poking around, I 
came up with this inelegant solution. RH has a library 
/usr/lib/libglut.so.3.7 that seems incompatible with fgfs. I went to 
one of my older systems and copied over /usr/lib/libglut.so.3.7.0 
(RH7.1 system, file dated 12/26/01) to the same path. I changed the 
/usr/lib/libglut.so.3 symbolic link to connect the replacement 
library, and FlightGear has been running well since June 5. I don't 
claim this to be a proper solution, but it works here, and is reversible.
