Hi ,

I have a strange feeling that many OpenGL apps that
run on SGIs) use SGI specific OpenGL extensions. In
particular, DGL or distributed GL (???), is an X
protocol extension that SGI uses to perform some
rendering capabilities on the remote X server.
(Which the ppol at sgi would have a better answer)
Even after using the command setenv Display
mylinuxworkstation:0 to set the display to my linux
workstation I still get the error .Can anyone find me
ways of making linux dgl capable ???
