Your best bet would be mesa -- an OpenGL clone library. It's not accelerated, so rendering speed will be a bit slow, but it is compatible with OpenGL source code. www.mesa3d.org Under Linux, if you're using a 3Dfx or Nvidia chipset, there are patches available to modify a mesa installation to give you hardware acceleration -- though this tends to be a bit tricky to get working sometimes. I think there's at least a partial port of mesa for DJGPP that uses Allegro's routines for rendering. I can't seem to find the URL right now though. ----------- Thanks MCheu -----= Posted via Newsfeeds.Com, Uncensored Usenet News =----- http://www.newsfeeds.com - The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! -----== Over 80,000 Newsgroups - 16 Different Servers! =-----
