Hey everyone. While unpacking the Qtella RPM for my SuSe 8.0 box, I get a message stating that I need libGLcore.so.1. But after much searching online (rpmfind, etc..) I haven't been able to find the lib file to download. If anyone could point me in the right direction, I would really appreciate it.

TIA,
colin.

download the tar.gz

tar -xzvf filename

cd to folder

./configure
make install

be happy

RPM's have a lot of stupid problems.

Make sure you don't already have it.
su root
ldconfig -p|grep libGLcore.
Check the symlinks.

Never used Suse, but perhaps:
ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/8.0/suse/x3d1/
Run those through rpmfind to see what's inside.

tarballs are unmaintainable.
Source RPMS seem to be the solution.

Well, I installed the RPM simply by not checking for dependencies.

libGLcore.so.1 is apparently a library used for NVIDIA gfx cards.

I don't have one of those in my system. Why it needs that is a puzzle to me, so I ignored it *shrugs*

I'm current running Mandrake 8.2 right off the downloaded ISO.

I first attempted to install the .rpm as well. No luck. It whined about libGLcore.

Not be to deterred, I downloaded the latest source ..

./configure
make
make install

and .. Viola!

Qtella runs like a scalded dog!
