I compiled PLIB using gcc-2.96 on RHL7.2. Then I compiled a sample
program from the PUI programmers guide. But when I run it, it gives
an error message as follows and quits -
FATAL: puInit called without a valid OpenGL context.
I even compiled plib-examples with the same error coming after running
every example. I saw the source file pu.cxx which contains puInit().
glXGetCurrentContext() gets called while initialization takes place.
But this is returning NULL and hence the fatal error. I dont know why
it is returning NULL since I am unaware about GLX Contexts. Any
solutions or pointers?
Is it mandatory to have hardware acceleration to run programs using
PLIB ?
