Hi Jon,
I remember this freeglut problem from a while back. If I recall, the
solution was to install the "real" glut-3.7 packages. I probably have a
copy of these floating around somewhere if you can't find them online.
(For a seperate discussion ... you might want to try building the latest
version of FlightGear from cvs ...) :-)
Regards,
Curt.
