Please help me with OpenGL.pm...
It compiled and installed ok but watch this:

mh@x30:~$ perl -MOpenGL -e 1 Can't load '/home/mh/perl510/lib/site_perl/5.10.0/i686-linux-thread-mu +lti/auto/OpenGL/OpenGL.so' for module OpenGL: /usr/lib/xorg/modules/e +xtensions/libglx.so: undefined symbol: xf86Screens at /home/mh/perl51 +0/lib/5.10.0/i686-linux-thread-multi/DynaLoader.pm line 203.

I don't understand this messages about "undefined symbol: xf86Screens" - it does not seem to be a linker symbol, when I do an ldd on the libs all symbols are resolved so I don't know how to attack this...

As I am absolutely new to OpenGL and don't know that much about X11 I am at a loss... can someone please help me here?

I run Ubuntu 8.04 on a very old Thinkpad X30 (yeah - probably not the right machine for OpenGL but I just want to play around with it a bit) and Perl 5.10.

I can compile and run OpenGL demos in C++, so the OpenGL installation as such should be ok - I assume it's just some config stuff that I am missing ... unfortunately Google does not help much here...

Here some lcpci output that may be relevant:

00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation 82830 830 Chipset Host Bridge ( +rev 04) 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82830 CGC [Chipse +t Graphics Controller] (rev 04) 00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation 82830 CGC [Chipset Graph +ics Controller]
Many thanks!

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
