Bad code? Ouch! ;-) I guess I'll have to fix the warnings. They're the
same warnings I get so you're OK there.

Sorry, I've been away on vacation so I've missed most of this so far.
I've never used SuSe so I don't know how much help I'll be either.
I'm pretty sure ldglite doesn't use any GLX extensions (I haven't had
time to figure out which ones to use yet) so I suspect the problem is
in the Mesa/glut compilation. You got a lot of errors and warnings on
the ./configure stage of that, right?
Since I don't know SuSe I'll have to start with a lot of questions.
What video card are you using?
How old is SuSe 6.4?
Does it come with RPMs (or whatever packages) for MesaLib/MesaDemos?
According to this page it comes right out of the box with accelerated
Mesa glx drivers for the following chipsets: Matrox G200/G400,
ATI Rage Pro, Intel i810, S3 ViRGE, and a bunch of NVIDIA cards.

Perhaps you already had Mesa installed from SuSe? You may only need
to build MesaDemos.
Do you have a log of the Mesa compile session?
Does the MesaDemos package come with any small GLUT programs you can
use to test the Mesa/glut installation? I think it does and I'll
check this myself when I get a chance. This is probably your best
bet. Once you can get a simple glut program working, the ldglite
executable you made will probably work.
Don
PS. Which version of the ldglite source did you fetch?
