Hmm, this thread can still be rescued - it doesn't like Mesa, either. The ./configure program keeps telling me that I have an out of date glx.h
file. This is its exact output:
Code:
checking for GL library... yes
checking for glXGetProcAddressARB... yes
checking for GLU library... yes
checking for GL/gl.h... yes
checking for GL/glx.h... yes
checking whether glx.h defines glXGetProcAddressARB... no
configure: error: Your copy of glx.h is out of date. You can get a more recent copy from the latest Mesa distribution (http://mesa3d.sourceforge.net).
I have dutifully installed the latest Mesa, but to no avail. If it's of any help, the Mesa output looked like this:
Code:
Installing
./bin/installmesa

Done.
I even tried copying across the glx.h from the distribution package directly to the directory, but that didn't help, either.
Does anybody know how I would get past this hurdle and continue with
the install?
Thanks.
