I think you only should install Mesa if you have XFree 3.3.x. With XFree 4.1.0, you already get a libGL. So the two possible setups are: - XF 3.3 + libMesaGL + libMesaGLU + libMesaglut - XF 4.1 + libMesaGLU + libMesaglut (same for the devel packages). The Mesa- package contains control utils and config files for the DRI implementation of Mesa. I do not know if it is needed for the version included with XFree 4.1. And of course if you install nVidia drivers, you do not need the libMesaGL package, nor the libGL.so.xxx files installed with XFree4. The nVidia installer wipes out the latter. -- J.A.
