morgon has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
mh@x30:~$ perl -MOpenGL -e 1 Can't load '/home/mh/perl510/lib/site_perl/5.10.0/i686-linux-thread-mu +lti/auto/OpenGL/OpenGL.so' for module OpenGL: /usr/lib/xorg/modules/e +xtensions/libglx.so: undefined symbol: xf86Screens at /home/mh/perl51 +0/lib/5.10.0/i686-linux-thread-multi/DynaLoader.pm line 203.
I don't understand this messages about "undefined symbol: xf86Screens" - it does not seem to be a linker symbol, when I do an ldd on the libs all symbols are resolved so I don't know how to attack this...
As I am absolutely new to OpenGL and don't know that much about X11 I am at a loss... can someone please help me here?
I run Ubuntu 8.04 on a very old Thinkpad X30 (yeah - probably not the right machine for OpenGL but I just want to play around with it a bit) and Perl 5.10.
I can compile and run OpenGL demos in C++, so the OpenGL installation as such should be ok - I assume it's just some config stuff that I am missing ... unfortunately Google does not help much here...
Here some lcpci output that may be relevant:
