Thank you very much for your reply.

We are running this program on a Mandrake 8.0 linux. The XFree
version is 4.0.3. (>rpm -aq | grep xfree; XFree86 4.0.3) Our video
card is Matrox Graphics Inc. Millennium G400 16MB MGA G400 AGP.

We assume the drivers is runing fine but it would be better to show
us how to double check that. Could you please also show us how to
enable the hardware OpenGL acceleration? Thank you very much.

Sam
