i've installed the latest version of Mesa(4.0) and whnever i run ./configure on tuxracer dir, i get the following error: checking whether glx.h defined glXGetProcAddressARB ... no configure: error: Your copy of glx.h is out of date. You can get a more recent copy from the latest Mesa distribution (http://mesa3d.sourceforge.net). what is happenning? i double checked that the includes are on /usr/include/GL (i also used --with-gl-inc) and glx.h version is 4.0 thank you! -- Santiago Vazquez ------------------------------------------------------- |

I've had mesa, and those were just software renders Please get an rpm for your card on the site of your chipsets manufacturer You'll need to UNINSTALL you current kernel and GLX and INSTALL new ones from RPM Hope it'll work On 04-Dec-01 Santiago Vazquez wrote: > > i've installed the latest version of Mesa(4.0) and whnever i run ./configure > on tuxracer dir, i get the following error: > > checking whether glx.h defined glXGetProcAddressARB ... no > configure: error: Your copy of glx.h is out of date.

This is not only irrelevant, it's dangerous. He's building from source, not installing binary RPMs. Are you suggesting that he should UNINSTALL his kernel and then INSTALL a new one in this order? If he uninstalls his kernel, how is he supposed to boot in order to install the new one?=20 Anyway, I had this problem a long time ago when I built tux racer on my machine at home. (Unfortunately, I'm at work now, and can't check what I did to fix it.) You may be able to find the answer in the list archives. I seem to remember that I needed to download not a *newer* version of glx.h, but one that was the version that tux racer was expecting.=20 > On 04-Dec-01 Santiago Vazquez wrote: > >=20 > > i've installed the latest version of Mesa(4.0) and whnever i run ./conf= igure > > on tuxracer dir, i get the following error: > >=20 > > checking whether glx.h defined glXGetProcAddressARB ... no > > configure: error: Your copy of glx.h is out of date.

Like a videodriver I have the nVidea kernels, and kernel 2.4.4 > > Anyway, I had this problem a long time ago when I built tux racer on my > machine at home.

But uninstaling the "newer" ones and installing the hardware accelerated ones solved all my 3D problems. > >> On 04-Dec-01 Santiago Vazquez wrote: >> > >> > i've installed the latest version of Mesa(4.0) and whnever i run >> > ./configure >> > on tuxracer dir, i get the following error: >> > >> > checking whether glx.h defined glXGetProcAddressARB ... no >> > configure: error: Your copy of glx.h is out of date.
