OpenGL not showing up in several installs?

Post by loukingjr »

I noticed that "building openGL modules" no longer shows up when installing GAs... and on a few distros I end up getting no 3d support errors even though I have 3D enabled. any thoughts?

ok, I fixed a couple of them. I finally got Sabayon 5.4 running 3D after finding a post about 5.3. I'm not sure what to do about certain distros where there seems to be no matching source for a particular kernel to install so VB can build the GAs. If anyone has an idea how to get 3d working in let's say PCLinuxOS, that would be nice.

thanks
