Then you definitely don't want lines, you want narrow polygons. In 3D
mode the lines on the GC display have to get narrower or wider
depending on the distance from the viewer or else they will look
silly.

Yes, I tried that and it didn't work. Then I messed around a bit and got a

Off course they are :

That should find the list of rpms needed to build fg.
(you can try rpmdrake if you prefer a graphical tool that do the
same).

Yes it did. Not sure just what I did now, but that did the trick.

If a binary of FG will run but you can't build,
that probably means that the libs are installed but not their header files.
If this is the case,
you don't have the relavant -devel packages installed.

Curt and I have been having a discussion offline about algorithms for
NAV mode on a simple autopilot (like those typically found in a light
Cessna or Piper). The current autopilot does not have a working NAV
mode -- it was just a quick kludge, with ability to correct for a
crosswind.

I apologize that this is less than obvious at the first crack, but
simgear and flightgear are typically developed in parallel so you need
to have a matched set. SimGear-0.0.18 corresponds to
FlightGear-0.7.10. However if you want to build the cvs version of
