Re: [Mesa3d-users] mesa and quake3

[Joel F. <fus...@in...>]

I don't get the splash screen, but then again I don't even when I run
quake3 with the included mesa library and it works.  However, if I run a
program that uses libGL, I get a message saying "glide is compiled into
this library, but MESA_GLX_FX is not set".  Of course if I set it, I
don't get the error, but it doesn't seem to me that it's accelerated.  
In any case, it seems to me that this means that glide is at least "sort
of" compiled in, but for some reason libGL doesn't reference it at all
according to ldd, and of course quake3 gives the "unknown symbol:
grGlideInit" error.

I had already tried building it using the old Makefile.X11 system, but
it failed fairly early in the compile.  I don't remember the exact error
at this moment, but it was something about "no rule to make fxregoff.c"
in src/X86.  I'll try it again later and see exactly what it was.

I'll try posting on the newsgroups, but a few searches with deja didn't
turn up anything immediately...I'm thinking there just must be some
silly configuration problem here, but I can't figure out what.

Anyways, thanks for helping,

Joel
