Hello folks,

Perhaps some folks with opengl capabilities may be able to help. I have a
Slackware 10 system (very strong firewall) on a Dell Dimension 4500S using
linux kernel 2.4.31 and Intel´s latest 3D drivers for linux for the Intel
80845 graphics card. Linux 3D games glheretic (Heretic 1) (legal wad),
Legacy Doom, Doom2, TNT, plutonia (have all the legal wads), tuxracer and
Quake III Arena, Unreal Tournament Game of the Year all play very fast.
Doing glxgears at the shell prompt, I get the following modest results:

$ glxgears
4120 frames in 5.0 seconds = 824.000 FPS
4288 frames in 5.0 seconds = 857.600 FPS
4299 frames in 5.0 seconds = 859.800 FPS
4213 frames in 5.0 seconds = 842.600 FPS
4434 frames in 5.0 seconds = 886.800 FPS
4487 frames in 5.0 seconds = 897.400 FPS
4360 frames in 5.0 seconds = 872.000 FPS
4195 frames in 5.0 seconds = 839.000 FPS
4560 frames in 5.0 seconds = 912.000 FPS
4526 frames in 5.0 seconds = 905.200 FPS
8882 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1776.400 FPS
9276 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1855.200 FPS
9052 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1810.400 FPS
9751 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1950.200 FPS
9739 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1947.800 FPS
9488 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1897.600 FPS
9338 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1867.600 FPS
9599 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1919.800 FPS
9334 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1866.800 FPS

9754 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1950.800 FPS


Good enough for tuxracer, etc.; but for some reason xscreensaver will not
compile the gl xscreensaver components.

Can someone possibly shed some light why xscreensaver won´t compile the
gl components.

Best Regards,

Figured out what was wrong: GL files are in /usr/X11R6/include/GL
Was able to compile xscreensaver with gl components after making a
symbolic link of /usr/include/X11R6/include/GL to /usr/include/GL
