You didn't mention what version you tried. You can check the required libraries with command 'ldd majik'. As for 0.4.0pre, I noticed that while packaging the files I accidentally linked it to libGL and libMesaGLU. You should be able to fix the problem by installing either mesa and making symlinks from libGL.so.3 to libMesaGL.so.3 and libGLU.so.3 to libMesaGLU (or vice versa). IIRC Mesa 3.1 uses libGL(U) (no libMesaGLU) and Mesa 3.0 uses libMesaGL (no libGL) so it doesn't work on either unless you have symlinks :). ++ dazzt --- Jari Saukkonen + jari.saukkonen@cs.helsinki.fi | Coral programming, music, keyboards, web, demos, b5 | Nah-kolor dazzt @ Majik3D RPG https://majik3d-legacy.org | Majik
