Hi,
There is no need to install MESA. Just copy the files in lib (and/or
lib64) of NVIDIA's driver package
to your lib (and/or lib64) directory. Also copy all the files in include
directory to your include directory.
If you can't find this folder then run
sh NVIDIA-kernel-driver-<veriosn> -x // <- will just extract the
package and you can see what it
contains.
The lib (and/or lib64) folder contains libgl-version.so, libglx-version.so.
Create libgl.so and libglx.so symlink pointing to respective so files. The
driver also contains documentation.
Then follow the instruction to compile MESA from the book. This is to
install the SGI's GLu libraries provided with MESA. Don't install mesa. Just
do "make install" in Mesa-6.5/src/sgi. This will install only the GLu
libraries. Now you will have gl.h,glx.h,glu.h and respective lib
files. i.eNow you have complete OpenGL.
There is no need to compile the server again. Compile only the
programs which requires OpenGL. eg. libTiff.
