Hello, i am watching this discussion, and i would like to ask you some
things..<br>
<br>
i would like to install OpenGL support just for testing reasons.. in
olpc<br>
do i have to install mesa rpms found here:
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://bfccomputing.com/downloads/olpc/mesa/">http://bfccomputing.com/downloads/olpc/mesa/</a> <br>
and stated here: <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/227">http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/227</a><br>
<br>
i know it would be extremely slow, but it is just for test/educational
reasons!<br>
<br>
Mr Bernardo said in an email that disabled the GLX at buildtime in the
X server, <br>
that means that we could use Mesa libraries (which of them?) even if it
is slow<br>
<br>
i am new in linux so if anyone could help me on how can i install these
libraries and/ or more info on this, i would appreciate this!<br>
<br>
thanx in advance!<br>
<br>
<br>

Since our GPU cannot support hardware 3D acceleration, and
we don't even ship libGL, I've disabled the GLX at build
time in the X server.
Software based GLX could be made to work, but it would be
terribly inefficient. If you have code that renders through
the GL API, you'd get better performance by rendering
in-process and then transferring the resulting image to the
server.
