[PyOpenGL-Users] PyOpenGL-2.0.0.44-1 working - yipee

SourceForge Headquarters 1320 Columbia Street Suite 310 San Diego, CA 92101 +1 (858) 422-6466

I finally got PyOpenGL working.  Many thanks
to Tarn for his help.  The release notes are
quite helpful, once I read them of course.
The Linux system is a 
Mandrake 8.1rc1 with a bunch of Cooker upgrades.
I'm posting some notes so I can remember what I
did.
