Fedora :: Checking If OpenGL Is Working?
May 31, 2010
I'm trying to get a program to compile with OpenGL support and it's saying that the headers are missing. But I think (or thought!) that I already had Open GL up and running. My suspicion is that I need to install the appropriate -devel files...but I just can't seem to find them. Furthermore, I don't want to tweak my system and install proprietary Nvidia drivers if things are already working just fine.
I have a Geforce 8300 GS in a i586 32bit Dell Inspiron 530. I'm trying to compile Cinelarra and keep getting:
Quote:
OpenGL 2.0 libraries missing Hardware acceleration using OpenGL 2.0 is disabled
Does anyone know which driver (ie: 96xx? 173xx?) I should be using for this? Where are these libraries? How can I find them and tell Cinelarra where to look?
And even more basically: How do I tell if OpenGL is working or not? Maybe I don't have them afterall..

I just upgraded from FC8 (32-bit) to FC11 (64-bit). In doing so, I backed up my entire World of Warcraft folder so I could try to avoid having to download and install it all over again. However, I've now reinstalled wine (64-bit now), and the nvidia drivers from the rpmfusion repos (also 64-bit), and when I try to start WoW, it says it cannot load OpenGL. I'm wondering if anyone knows what's up, and if there's a solution that doesn't involve reinstalling WoW.

OpenGL is not working on my installation. I'm completely new to Linux and have been trying to get it to work for hours, but whatever I try, it just doesn't work. When I try to load java applets which use OpenGL, the applet crashes with this error:

Sometimes at startup I get this message "Checking disk 1 of 1". Does that mean it's checking all partitions on the hd? After a bad shutdown there is no prompt for fsck to run and the system just boots up. In fstab I have both options set to "1" for the partition Ubuntu is on, all others set to "0". Any ideas on both?

I'm trying to put the geant4 program on my computer and I need to install openGL first. I need the glut.h file and gl.h file in order to do this but I can't seem to find them anywhere online. I am using Fedora 14.

I'm noticing that the performance for FreeNX Server under Fedora Core 14 is really bad. The screen refreshing is painfully slow. I'm thinking maybe the issue is related to the use of opengl in the X driver? how I can disable opengl entirely, so that the X server is only using 2d rendering?

Any one had any success enabling openGl in fedora 14? I tired and failed; as well, kmod seems to have disappeared and the resolution has dropped from 1920X1080 to 1280X1024, and stock there cannot be adjusted higher only can go down, as well the KRandRTray once clicked, ten to vanish.

I tried again (with easylife this time) and I got the same result - once the kmod was finished I just got a cursor - so two tries with two different methods, same result. So, is there a generic type driver that will at least take advantage of some of the features of my geforce 6800?

In the past I've played around with OpenGL development using the Mesa library. I have F13 installed now and would like to further explore OpenGL, but am trying out the default Nouveau/Gallium3d setup. As I understand Gallium3d is intended to replace Mesa3d so I'm at a loss as to what packages need installing to provide the header files and such needed to build OpenGL applications as a search for Gallium turns up nothing in the repos.

I am running Fedora 13 with the nvidia blob for OpenGL hw acceleration, everything x86_64. I have spent a couple of days trying to get either Morrowing (TES3) or Oblivion (TES4) working under wine, unfortunately without success.
I have tried several flavors of wine: 64-bit wine from the fedora 13 repo, 32-bit wine from the fedora 13 repos, 32-bit wine 1.3.2 built from source. In all cases, running either of the games I get the same error (using WINEDEBUG=+d3d): "Direct3D requires OpenGL support." Appareantly wine d3d layer can't access to the nvidia OpenGL driver, and therefore d3d is disabled within wine -- making the two games not to start up.
I have tried looking around for a solution, but in all cases I found the root of the problem was missing OpenGL support / missing drivers. This is not my case; I use OpenGL everyday, and hardware acceleration is clearly supported in my configuration (confirmed with `glxinfo | grep direct`).
I think that wine might have problems accessing the 64-bit ogl drivers, but I don't know how to confirm it, and even less how to solve it. Clearly, installing Windows is not an option

My friend just recently gave me an Nvidea Geforce 4 64mb, and it is supposed to be better than my ATI x700 Pro. I was wondering if there was openGL support for this card, and how do i replace it with my ATI card?

I have verified using yum that I have the most uptodate glut, freeglut, freeglut-devel etc., yet when I compile Example 2-6 from the Red Book at http://www.glprogramming.com/red/chapter02.html#name16, I get a window that is too small for the program output, includes display from other windows, and will not redraw after being resized.
I get slightly better behavior with the SGI sample program mentioned in the same book, 'checkers.c'. Again, the initial size is too small, but at least it will resize and redraw the checkerboards entirely inside the resized window. What is going on here? Is this some bug in glut? I can't see anything obviously wrong in their glut initialization, which looks like:
int main(int argc, char** argv)
{
glutInit(&argc, argv);
glutInitDisplayMode (GLUT_SINGLE | GLUT_RGB);
glutInitWindowSize (350, 150);
[code]...
Then again, since I am such a newbie to glut, I am not sure I would recognize what, if anything, they did wrong. what ARE the valid and useful command line parameters I could have passed to the main() above?

I will keep this short, I have a bad HDD possibly PCB damage due to heat.It's a laptop although I can remove it but in the mean time till then, is there any way I can pass an option to the kernel to stop scanning it.My OS mounted on a 8 gb sd card plus 4 gb flash drive.It takes 20 minutes for Fedora to bootup and Debian base Linux 30 to 35 minutes.
It wouldn't been a problem setting my laptop to sleep mode when I'm done and it was working fine but after a few updates, once I put my laptop to sleep I can't do it again in the same row. I have to shutdown. Lets say I tried anyway, system stop being responsive, while I let it continue to see it will become responsive again, it went on for an hour and half. It's annoying... So my question is, what option can tell the kernel to not scan my HDD.

I have just installed from the Live Cd (Fedora 13). So far so good except that I have just installed the updates (which has taken some time) .
The updater screen shows a full progress bar and next to the progress bar is this text " checking for libraries currently in use" this has been at least one hour showing the same thing, it hasn't changed (PC is still running OK). Does this mean I can safely quit and the updates will be OK or should I keep waiting for a reboot screen or updates success message ? Is this normal, if so how long does it usually take to complete?

On my FC11 installation Palimpset Disk Utility icon in the top menu bar is reporting that I have a disk failure with the caption "one or more disks is failing".When I open up the details section in Pilimpset I can see that "2 sectors are failing",I have checked this with gparted checking facility and it reports that the disk is OK.What I would like to do is to check the disk using a command like tool or ofline tool, which would then tell me where those bad sectors are on that partition so that I can resize it (using gparted) and have the bad sectors in NON ALLOCATED DISK SPACE.

Whenever I get to the dependancy check, it gets up to 99% and appears hung. I am in text, not GUI. Any idea why or if I just need to wait longer? I waited about 1/2 hour. Also, on newer versions, there seems to be no text install option. I saw in the stickies there is this option, and I was wondering how to get to it? I hit the function keys to get different menus while installing fedora 10 on my laptops but just can find a place to type text. I'm no guru, but I've been around the block and I'm just faster at the old text way. Old fart you might

I'm not necessarily gonna do this, but I have to know. Is there a way to make the system not complain about every single freaking password you try to use? Make it so that any regular user could make "hello" their password without complaint? Like I said, I won't necessarily do it, but I have to know if it can be done.I did some searching and found the su -c "passwd username" trick, which is working for right now (I have root access but a user account I made for a friend doesn't)... it's just irritating when it won't even let him use something like "snuh123" because it seems to think it's based on a (reversed) dictionary word. Any use of a dictionary word, even with other chars, fails

Installing from a CD, and F13 constantly freezes at the same spot - "Checking dependencies in packages selected for installation" - gets stuck 1/3 to 1/2 thru.

I tried installing F14 and F15 but display resulted in freezing. The display would work upto "Check Media/Skip Test" for media during installation and the system freezes immediately after that. So I did a VNC installation from another system. But the initiation of X would always result in hanging of the box. After googling and trying various solutions, I found a ray of hope in one solution which suggested adding "vesafb:mtrr,ywrap vga=0x318" to the kernel arguments. This resulted in displaying successfully the boot-time flash (Fedora logo being filled with white color) during booting. But "startx" or "inittab 5" result in hanging of the system.
The following is the relevant information:

The problem is that yum is refusing to install gcc on a new SL6 install. As far as I can make out, a security update that I applied prior to my attempt to install gcc has caused problems. I did a new SL6 install (x86_86) a couple of weeks ago. This was a minimal installation, and I didn't install any dev tools, as I intended to install them later from yum. Since then, I've done very little; I installed a few packages (samba, xemacs, etc), and I let the system update itself. The update installed 'kernel', and updated 'kernel-firmware' [URL]. I now need to install the dev tools (g++, and so on), but I can't. I've tried this from gpk-application, and directly from yum. The complete yum output is below, but the basic error is:
> Error: Package: glibc-2.12-1.7.el6.i686 (sl)
> Requires: glibc-common = 2.12-1.7.el6
> Installed: glibc-common-2.12-1.7.el6_0.5.x86_64 (@sl-security)

I am trying to install fc11 on an intel mb with pentium4 and ati graphics
the install always hangs at the point where the sw packages have been selected
and the install is checking dependencies.
I have tried the regular install
the basic video install, and text install
with the same symptoms each time
the dvd drive lite is on and the hard disk activity lite is on and the system is frozen.
have to power off.
I have fc11 installed on another system (amd) and had install issues also but that was
with the preview.
