What package do I need to get it running? Well, my card is an ATI (forget the exact model; something like Radeon A350 iirc). I used the fglrx package converted from RPM available from ATI's web site. This provides xserver and GL/GLU libs. If you go this route be aware that you will likely have to handle, by hand, some conflicts between fglrx and the free xserver-xorg-video-ati package. The fglrx package will happily overwrite any pre-existing GL libs. BTW, this was all in 32bit i386 (sorry for the off-topic). -Brett. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

That's actually answered a previous query I had posted to -amd64 and -mentors, since I'm trying to produce a package for nspluginwrapper (use 32-bit plugins in Mozilla/Firefox for amd64).
