Hi,

 

I’ve got a new problem.  I have a redhat 9 linux box with an Nvidia GeForce4 card, and planet-ccrma packages installed.

 

I’ve just tried running pd with gem (from the planetccrma packages) and got an ‘undefined symbol’ error. Recompiled gem from CVS and got the same problem.

 

After digging for a while, I found this page (http://www.opengl.org/discussion_boards/ubb/Forum4/HTML/000943.html) One of the posters seems to imply that the nvidia linux drivers don’t support those functions.

 

I personally very much need the nvidia drivers on that machine since the standard nv driver won’t handle twinview.

 

The questions:

 

1)       would it not be possible to change the gem makefile so that it does compile, minus whatever objects rely on whatever is missing/not working?

 

2)       could someone explain to me how gem uses Mesa, and the glx functions?  I’m very fuzzy on this.

 

3)       Is anyone using the nvidia linux drivers AND gem with success?

 

Many thanks!
