RE: KDE problem - libGL.so.1

Hi Ewan
	Try making a link from 
/usr/lib/libGL.so.1 -> /usr/lib/opengl/xfree/lib/libGL.so.1.2

This can be done by the following commands: 
cd /usr/lib
ln -s  /usr/lib/opengl/xfree/lib/libGL.so.1.2 libGL.so.1

of course this depends on you having the file:
/usr/lib/opengl/xfree/lib/libGL.so.1.2

Which is part of package:
bash-2.05a# qpkg -f libGL.so.1.2
x11-base/xfree *

Hope this works for you, 

Best regards

Danny Hallwood

Anyone got any ideas?

On my system there isn't a link in /usr/X11R6/lib at all, there's one in

/usr/lib and it points to a real library in /usr/lib/opengl/xfree/lib/
Both the symlink and the library belong the the xfree package; maybe
check 
your USE flags for the opengl flag (it should be in the defaults though)

and reemerge X?
