Re: [Bug-gnubg] FTGL

[Eli Dayan]

Hi All,

I am trying to use 2.1.2 on Solaris 10 with Sun compilers.  FTGL itself builds 
fine with no problems (aside from the fact that there seems to be missing an 
'uninstall' target in the makefile), however the code in gnubg which is using 
FTGL does not build properly, and I must force gnubg to use GLUT instead.  Why 
performance is still so poor on Solaris is a mystery to me, however, if someone 
would like to assist me in getting the FTGL code going on Solaris, I would 
certainly appreciate it.  I have already resolved a few other probelms 
preventing a proper build on Solaris, and FTGL issues seem to be the last 
hurdle.  According to this page: 
http://opengl.geek.nz/weblog/archives/000092.html, it does not seem that FTGL 
has much life left.
