This is the first step before trying to compile the CVS.
This is a further feedback to all reading users interested in installing FG binaries (see link above) under SuSe Linux 10.1: (I tested this with SuSe Linux 10.1 64bit version for AMD64 processor but this should be the same for the 32bit version) 1. Installing the 3 *.rpm files withYAST was successfull and without any problem after having installed OpenAL and plib from the SuSe installation disks (with YAST) first. (First the "data" rpm, then the "no_source" rpm, then the third rmp) 2. Under KDE a menu entry is created automatically under "games" :-/ 3. One has to install the NVidia drivers with YAST (as recommended by NVidia). This is a litte "tricky" for a Linux newbee as the x11-video-nvidia file is unproblematic but the nvidia-gfx-kmp-xxx is for the new "default" kernel (something like 2.6.16.21-x) and the kernel from the installation disk is 2.6.16.13-4 - so you have to *update* the kernel. The default update system is faulty, so google for "SDB: ZEN-Update System problem in 10.1" from OpenSuSe. Once you know the "trick" how to manage the update all further is pretty simple - make at least the YAST, kernel and security updates. After that, the NVidia drivers can be installed without dependency complaint. 4. Run FlightGear, enjoy! Hope this is a little help for other SuSe Linux newbees like me!
