I appear to have the same system but


I have compiled 0.11.2 and linked against GtkLookat 0.9.1.

Unfortunately, I get a core-dump from a malloc which comes from

	gluTessVertex ()

Probably some version incompatability but

MY QUESTION IS ...

	where can I find a gtklookat suitable for 0.11.2.

We have had problems with RedHat's massively patched 2.96 in other
software.  It has to do with unitialized values.  It gave internal
compiler errors.
