Try installing with the tar.gz package instead of the rpm. Sometimes the
information obtained with the package manage is in error. Try the other and
see if you get any error messages.
Also, you may have to adjust the installation scripts to point to the proper
location of your open gl files.

I went with ABIT using the via 133 chipset. I used everything I could to my

Know what? Go buy your Intel SDRAM-based solution. I wouldn't want VIA to
lose prescious money on you; money that you would surely use up in tech
support calls. Just don't come crying to us when your prescious Intel
delivers a solution that doesn't feel any faster than a P3.

For me, its all about choice and freedom. Unlike Microsoft products, I'm not
forced into anything.

If everyone subscribed to this list detailed their hardware, very few would
