..no.  A shot in the dark: try use gcc3 instead of gcc-2.9x,
on compiling.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] latest CVS doesn't run on linux

2002-05-20 Thread Christopher S Horler

FYI

I run RH 7.3, plib cvs, simgear cvs, fgfs cvs and base cvs, and use NVidia 
drivers and don't experience any of these problems.  I suspect that your 
solutions are not entirely necessary, maybe when you upgraded you might have 
forgot that the XFree devel rpm probably sticks in a new libGL which was 
previously renamed by installing the NV rpms. 

The documentation says that it's only necessary to install the NV GL includes 
if you want to use to quote '  NVIDIA OpenGL extensions'.  I'm not sure that 
flight gear uses them.

Later,

Chris

 I've finally got flightgear working on RedHat 7.3 with NVidia drivers. The
 only drawback I found is that either enabling game-mode or setting
 geometry leads to vry low framerates (probably due to software
 rendering?). Other than that, flightgear runs smoothly on a window with
 above than 50 fps on a Geforce2.

 It looks like flightgear got linked against a /usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.a
 presumable from Mesa (it comes from XFree86-devel.xxx.rpm) instead of
 /usr/lib/libGL.so from NVidia.

 So for everybody upgrading to RedHat 7.3, just make a symbolic link for
 libGL.so into /usr/X11R6/lib/ dir after installing your NVIDIA_GLX rpm.
 Just in case copy your NVidia GL headers into /usr/include/GL.

 To put it in a nutshell:

 rpm -U NVIDIA_GLX.*
 ln -s /usr/lib/libGL.so /usr/X11R6/lib/
 cp /usr/share/doc/NVIDIA_GLX/include/GL/* /usr/include/GL/

 After that, just compile plib, Simgear and flighgear as usual.

 Hope this helps others as well.

 Flavio Villanustre

[Flightgear-devel] latest CVS doesn't run on linux

2002-05-19 Thread Flavio Villanustre


I've just updated my Simgear, Flightgear, fgfsbase trees from CVS and 
compiled them. But when I try to run fgfs it exits with next error:

Processing command line arguments
Finished command line arguments
Opening a window: 1024x768
game mode params = width=1024 height=768 bpp=16
Xlib:  extension GLXUnsupportedPrivateRequest missing on display :0.0.
GLUT: Fatal Error in fgfs: visual with necessary capabilities not found.

I'm running XFree86 4.1 with NVIDIA 1.0 2880 drivers.

xdpyinfo shows GLX and NVIDIA specific extensions loaded but no such thing 
as GLXUnsupportedPrivateRequest extension.

It didn't happen in the 0.7.10 era.

Can anybody help?

Best regards,

Flavio Villanustre

Can you still run version 0.7.10?  Can you run any other opengl
programs?  This sounds more like a system configuration / driver
problem.

Curt.

Hah!  Try running something that uses full texturing such as gloss;
the differences in private requests between GL implementations generally
appear when trying to do texturing, which gears (etc) doesn't use.

It is likely that you have replaced the GLX backend in the server, but not
recompiled the GL front end in the X libraries.  The latter includes changes
to the source code headers, so everything from PLIB onwards must be
recompiled.

Try running FGFS with no commandline parameters
or simply --geometry=1024x768

Your problem may be related to requesting gamemode
and/or bpp=16

Norman, tried both with no success. Now I'm looking at a libGL.a that 
XFree86-devel rpm from RedHat 7.3 has dropped into /usr/X11R6/lib. 

As soon as I have a clue I'll let you know to warn other people migrating
