[Plib-users] unresolved references in configure script

[Jeff P. <wd...@co...>]

In trying to install plib 1.3 I am having a problem getting ./configure 
to run. First it was not having freeglut libraires, which I got and 
installed. Now it complains about unresolved references. Cut from 
config.log:

configure:2793: checking for glutGetModifiers in -lfreeglut
configure:2812: gcc -o conftest -g -O2    -L/usr/X11R6/lib conftest.c 
-lfreeglut
   -lGLU -lGL   -lSM -lICE -lXi -lXmu -lXext -lX11  -lm 1>&5
/usr/local/lib/libfreeglut.so: undefined reference to 
`XF86VidModeSetViewPort'
/usr/local/lib/libfreeglut.so: undefined reference to 
`XF86VidModeSwitchToMode'
/usr/local/lib/libfreeglut.so: undefined reference to 
`XF86VidModeGetAllModeLines'

Searching the net reveals these are in libXxf86vm, which only exists on 
my Slackware system as a static, ie. /usr/X11R6/lib/libXxf86vm.a

In fact, the configure command line for the test does not even have 
libXxf86vm in it as a static or a dynamic needed library.

This may be a freeglut problem. But, can somebody point me in the right 
direction?
