- This thought had occured to me as well, except I _have_ gotten some a.out
- svgalib programs to work (the supplied demo, 3d, worked just fine). I
- just can't get anything to compile with lots of undef'd refreneces.
- Also, I noticed the demo files compile with the flag "-lg" which looks
- for some library which I don't have, and which isn't one that compiles
- out (those are -lvga and -lvgagl). Observe:
-
- Ender:/usr/lib# file *vga*
- libvga.so.1: symbolic link to libvga.so.1.2.7
- libvga.so.1.2.7: ELF 32-bit LSB dynamic lib i386 (386 and up) Version 1
- libvgagl.so.1: symbolic link to libvgagl.so.1.2.7
- libvgagl.so.1.2.7: ELF 32-bit LSB dynamic lib i386 (386 and up) Version 1
- svgalib: directory
- Ender:/usr/lib# cd svgalib
- Ender:/usr/lib/svgalib# file 3d testgl
- 3d: Linux/i386 demand-paged executable (ZMAGIC)
- testgl: setuid setgid Linux/i386
-
- ---
-
- Both 3d and testgl work fine, although I couldn't get either to compile
- by myself (These are binaries from a slackware distribution of a previous
- svgalib.) So that just about blows that theory away.... sigh....
