I have the following libraries on my machine:
/usr/lib/opengl/xfree/lib/libGL.so.1.2
/usr/lib/opengl/nvidia/lib/libGL.so.1.0.4363
and /usr/lib/libGL.so.1 is a soft link:
# ls -l /usr/lib/libGL.so.1
lrwxrwxrwx [ snip ] /usr/lib/libGL.so.1 ->
/usr/lib/opengl/nvidia/lib/libGL.so.1.0.4363
and if I query for the owners of the library files, I get:
# qpkg -f /usr/lib/opengl/xfree/lib/libGL.so.1.2 ; qpkg -f
/usr/lib/opengl/nvidia/lib/libGL.so.1.0.4363
x11-base/xfree *
media-video/nvidia-glx *
So if you have an NVidia video card (or builtin) have you
installed nvidia-glx? And if not, do you have these files as
part of xfree?
I also notice that my /etc/ld.so.conf file contains the line:
/usr/lib/opengl/nvidia/lib
If you have Nvidia and yours doesn't, you might try adding it,
and then running (as root):
# ldconfig
If none of this works, can you provide any more info?
