Question Need libGLcore.so.1 but no NVidia h/w


Im am installing (or should I say "attempting" to install) Foobillards on my FC3 notebook. However I am met with the following error

***
error: Failed dependencies:
libGLcore.so.1 is needed by foobillard-3.0a-1.i586
***

Some online research had eluded to this necessary file being part of an NVidia driver package. Here's the problem, I don't have an NVidia display device. I have an ATI Radeon 9000 (yes, with the lastest and greatest drivers from ATI).

Is there another solution other than Foobillards only being able to run in a display device from a specific manufacturer? Or, is it safe to assume there is indeed a way for it to runon my ATI card?

$ locate libGLcore
/tmp/x11-build/xc/exports/lib/modules/extensions/libGLcore.a
/tmp/x11-build/xc/programs/Xserver/GL/mesa/GLcore/libGLcore.a
/tmp/x11-build/package-x11/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions/libGLcore.a
/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions/libGLcore.a

And I have a radeon in my notebook - no NVidia
drivers in sight.


Cheers,
Tink

Yes, I was able to locate libGLcore.a just you were able to

***
[root@localhost /]# locate libGLcore
/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions/libGLcore.a
***

Nevertheless, unless I am missing something, I am still without the desired libGLcore.so.1

Am I not?

You certainly are ... all I was trying to say is that I don't think
it's tied to NVidia cards ... of course (again) I can't say that
for sure ... it may just as well be a question of how X has
been set-up/compiled ...


Cheers,
Tink
