I'm using fedora 9, 64-bit edition. I'm running KDE 4, shipping with the fedora
9 installation DVD. I'm trying to install virtualGL 2.1, according to this link
http://www.virtualgl.org/vgldoc/2_1final.
Everythings goes well till I get to section 6.2 Granting Access to the Server’s
X Display at http://www.virtualgl.org/vgldoc/2_1final/#hd006002, and
specifically the Sanity Check part.
The first command in this part reads
Code:
xauth merge /etc/opt/VirtualGL/vgl_xauth_key
When I try to run this command, an error messages indicates that the file
doesn't exist.
I tracked the problem a little and found that during the configuration, the
file /etc/gdm/Init/Default was patched by adding the command vglgenkey at its
beginning. Since this file is executed every time gdm is launched, this command
should be run as well. However this command is run without any effect. I tried
to run this command manually at the command line, and found that one line in
its script, namely the line using xauth doesn't have any effect as it tries to
create the file /etc/opt/VirtualGL/vgl_xauth_key.
I don't know why xauth refuses to generate that file as instructed in the
vglgenkey script.
Did anyone manage to install virtualGL in feodra(9) and completed this step?
Appreciating any help or suggestions!
