| Do I have to make any special arrangements while setting up gentoo so that I will have opengl support? I can't get RTCW or anything else opengl related to work. I have a 32mb Raedon VE. |

I guess the way I worded the question might have sounded like a simple question. I built the system with opengl in the USE variable section of make.conf
I have tried DRI - the direct redering interface, but nothing helped. I have everything up to date. Still gives the same error. "Can't open the opengl interface" |

Try this that may help you get opengl :
| Quote: |
root@Atlas /home/skeleton:opengl-update --help
usage: opengl-update <GL implementation>
note:
This utility switch between OpenGL implementations. Currently there
are two supported implementations, namely "xfree" and "nvidia", the
implementations for XFree86 and the NVidia drivers respectively.
examples:
opengl-update xfree
This will setup things to use libGL.so from XFree86
opengl-update nvidia
This will setup things to use libGL.so from the NVidia drivers.

| Is DRI enabled? Does glxgears work, and what is the ouput of glxinfo? |
