Re: [Visualpython-users] libgtkgl.so.5 error

[Bruce S. <bas...@un...>]

Presumably this is on Linux? Is there anyone among the VPython users that
knows anything about Mesa? I gather it is supposed to be an alternative to
OpenGL, but the overview at the Mesa web site implies that one should not
expect it to work the same. Since the VPython Visual module interfaces to
OpenGL, not Mesa, is there any reason to think that it should work with
Mesa?
