[Vis5d-users] Re: problems with vis5d5.2 on Solorais5.7 on UltraSparc

Looks like one of three things:
1. OpenGL is not installed on your Sparc
2. OpenGL is installed incorrectly
3. Sun has moved the locations of library and includes files
   in Solaris 7.

You can either figure out what is going on with OpenGL,
or compile with 'make sunos5-x' (but this will be much
slower than using OpenGL).

Good luck,
Bill
