The /usr/lib/libGL*  are not pointing  to the nvidia libs  ?  And I will
try pointing them to the the nvidia libs.
But how comes glxgears works great (1300fps) and glxinfo return DRI enabled.

I had this already included in ld.so.conf

/usr/lib64/nvidia-graphics-1.0-8756
/usr/lib64/nvidia-graphics-1.0-8756
include ld.so.conf.d/*.conf

in fact I have no problems running glxgears and glxinfo returns with DRI
enabled. I also use the composite extension on X with the nvidia
drivers. So I assume that the nvidia drivers are working correctly. But
fgfs tells me otherwise when I start it

I initially assumed that this had something to do with the freeglut
version that is installed by default on FC5 (freeglut 2.4) .  I found in
the mailing list archives SUSE people that had a similar issues with
freeglut 2.4 and the fgfs instructions mentioned somewhere that freeglut
2.4 did not work with fgfs.
So I tried installing the freeglut 2.2 rpm for fedora, but this fails
with an unresolved dependency.

Which is sort of strange error msg because the libs are installed on my
system.

Does freeglut 2.4 work with fgfs 0.9.10 ?


thanks andy
