checking for main in -lm... yes checking for library containing glEnd... no checking for library containing gluNewQuadric... no checking for library containing glXWaitX... no checking for library containing glutMainLoop... no
i have mesa-3.4.2_2. i am running freebsd 4.5 release. any hints on what to do would be greatly appreciated.
It looks like OpenGL/GLUT is not installed on your machine or is in a rather strange location. I'm not a FreeBSD specialist, so I can only guess. What does locate libMesa libGL libglut gl.h glu.h glut.h yield? Any FreeBSD people using HOpenGL out there to help? Cheers, S.
