If I remember correctly, the checks were removed when I switched to the OpenGL units from delphi3d.net. (And on Windows, you normally would get an error message, when a DLL cannot be found. For Linux, we should add a check.) I have added this to my to do list. - Sebastian ___ fpc-pascal maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal

May be the problem is that the linker can't find the corresponding header files of the actual library. I'm using Debian and the followng sequence of actions solves such problems: 1. Installing standart FreePascal system: apt-get install fp-compiler # install FreePascal apt-get install binutils # install assembler 2. Installing some actual library (postgresql as an example): apt-get install postgresql# PostgreSQL itself apt-get install postgresql-dev# header files for libpq The last step (installing the *-dev package) is the solution (in my opinion) ! = Skelet == http://skelet.hit.bg Want to chat instantly with your online friends?

While this is correct (installing the dev package can fix these kind of problems), what actually is needed from the dev packages are not the headers but the static library (the .a file). The "normal" package (without -deve) is the dynamic library (.so file) ___ fpc-pascal maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
