Hi,

Perhaps Hans will be able to enlighten me on this one ;-)
I compiled the x11 target with GL and Glide added, and get the messages
below on startup. I have a 3dfx someone gave me lying around, so maybe I'll
try it to see if it actually works as expected as a user on Fedora Core or
not (does the binary need to be suid root to use Glide3 or does
console.perms take care of the /dev/3dfx preoperly?).
That was the first question, the second is : Why is libglut.so dlopened
like that? When libglut devel files aren't installed, the main libglut.so
symlink isn't present, and it seems xmame then can't use the
libglut.so.3.8.0 I have properly. Isn't it possible to "cleanly" link the
xmame binary against libglut?
I think the same applies to libGL.so and libGLU.so when xorg/XFree86 devel
files aren't installed.

$ xmame
GLINFO: cannot access GLX library libglut.so directly ...
GLERROR: dlerror() returns [libglut.so: cannot open shared object file: No
such file or directory]
GLINFO: loaded OpenGL library libGL.so!
GLINFO: loaded GLU    library libGLU.so!
info: using FXmame v0.5 driver for xmame, written by Mike Oliphant
Glide error: couldn't open /dev/3dfx and not running as root
Disabling use of Glide mode
