Hi, I'm having the same problem. Tried installing a game off of a cd,
ran fine, but after going through the menu and loading up it quits out
and gives me the following error.
"-- is Mesa compiled for your hardware?"
-- if you're using 3DFX hardware, is MESA_GLX_FX set to 'f'?"
"-- if you're using a custom GL, are you specifying it on the command
line?"
I have a "PCI 3D Rage P/M Mobility AGP" that I believe supports OpenGL.
I have no idea really how to interpret this error nor what to do with
it.
