Ah, really sorry. Made a stupid mistake. Ofcourse, what I kept as an input was infact the compiler. What I meant to write was
./configure --target=sparc-linux --host=sparc-linux I am trying to make mesa make libraries for sparc-linux architecture. libraries like glut (libglut, libGL etc). Basically, all those libraries which the demos in mesa would make use of. THe solution which I thought I could implement was to tell mesa that it's making programs for a sparc-linux architecture. Now, the problem I have is, I can use gcc compiler to successfully compile and link one of the demos; and also run d resulting executable flawlessly. But when I try to make use of sparc-linux-gcc to compile and link the demos (.c source code), I could only manage to compile the .c source file, but unable to link it. It seems o have problems with the libraries. I include the path, but then it says the library are not compatible, thus it can't read it. SO I figured having a sparc-linux version of the libraries from the beginning (telling mesa via configure) before 'make' that when it's time to 'make' it would know it has to aim for the sparc-linux arrchitecture.
