Quake4 OpenGL error


I've installed Quake4 correctly according to: http://zerowing.idsoftware.com/linux/quake4/
I have a geforce4mx, slackware 10.1, kernel 2.4.29, and the newest nvidia drivers (7676). When I attempt to start quake4, I get the following error:

SDL_GL_LoadLibrary libGL.so.1 failed: Could not load OpenGL library

I appreciate all help.

(Does it have anything to do with this: http://zerowing.idsoftware.com/linux...5708479f9ad7dc
?)

Hi, Have you updated your nVidia drivers and installed them per the readme?

Please do not post the same thread in more than one forum. Picking the most relevant forum and posting it once there makes it easier for other members to help you and keeps the discussion all in one place.
