This system does the same thing under Windows XP!!!! You do not get the 
whole aircraft. The Cessna 172 selction in Windows looks the same as the 
Cessna 172 using fgrun under Linux. A black instrument panel and the 
navigation lights are all you see rotating around. No aircraft body.

At least under Windows when flying I do have the instruments and runway 
lines, neither of which do I see under Linux. But, under Windows I have 
about a 2 frames per second frame rateat file screen 800x600.

Now one thing I just noticed in windows is the following message on fgfs 
startup.
Error: RenderTexture requires the following unsupported OpenGL extentions:
WGL_ARB_extentions_string

I just last night installed the latest Nvidia GeForce 4 MX driver.

The really strange thing is I had flightgear running under both Linux 
and Windows about a year ago and I have rebuilt the drive since then 
doing new installs of Windows and Linux. So why do I have these problems 
now???
