Thanks dreamer,
I'll see if I can get that to work. Git confuses the hell out of me but the install instructions look pretty clear. Have you tried this? If so does GEM just work once glshim is installed?
cheers

Perhaps have a look at glshim: https://github.com/lunixbochs/glshim
Not all GEM functions are working yet, but anyone porting to GL ES could start there.

Reviving an old thread here. Just wondering if anyone is working on this port at the moment? I'd be very interested in supporting this work somehow.
Thanks

That is correct, there is presently no way to run Gem on the RPi. There was some work done on porting Gem to OpenGL ES in the past, sounds like someone should revisit that since there is demand. It would mean that Gem would also run on Android and iOS.

I've just installed the Pd-0.43.3-extended-20121004.deb file from
http://puredata.info/downloads/pd-extended-0-43-3-on-raspberry-pi-raspbian-w...
So far so good, but when I try to open a gemwin the following error occurs:
"GEM: X server has no OpenGL GLX extension"
Googling for info I came across this:
GLX is an extension to the X windows server which allows GL programs to pass their commands through to the underlying renderer. On the pi there are two fundamental problems:
- GLX is currently only designed to support OpenGL, not OpenGL ES. RPi
doesn't actually support OpenGL, just OpenGL ES (1.1 and 2.0).
- The underlying xf86-video driver needs to support GLX. The default X
driver for the pi right now is the fbdev driver, which doesn't support GLX. I don't know of any drivers that are working on GLX support, but they'd have to provide some kind of translation mechanism as well to convert unsupported GL calls into their GL ES equivalents.
For the foreseeable future, you're probably out of luck.
Is that the case? Is there no way of running GEM on the raspberry pi at present?
Cheers,
Iain
