Re: [Caml-list] weird bugs with lablgl

Brian,

Sorry, I should have mentioned that I'm using the Mesa 3D openGL
implementation on Debian Linux.  The number of installation options is
horrific, though, so I may have chosen a sub-optimal configuration.
However, I haven't had any problems when using openGL from C programs.
