It appears to be a problem with MESA hardware opengl support and the ATI
Mobility chipset.  I'll have to muck around a bit more with google to
see if anyone mentions anything like a workaround.

More searching reveals some tantalizing hints, but nothing concrete.
Setting MESA_NO_SSE=1 is mentioned, but I'm not clear if it's an
environment variable, or a compiler option.  By the way, did you build
MESA yourself, or was it installed by a package in the distribution?

I suppose you could try:

  export MESA_NO_SSE=1

before running ldglite and see what happens.

(...) I installed it per the instructions on the LDraw website, so I guess I built it myself. (...) I'll try that when I get a free moment. I was kinda hopeing that this problem was a problem with my Linux install and not hardware. Oh well... Thanks (...) (21 years ago, 16-Jun-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)
