Okay, let me know what you find out.
I will have to put this on hold, "startx -- -depth 16" isn't working for
me, X doesn't start up, I think the busy linux admins here would have to
expand on a configuration file for this to work right. I get a big
message, but I think the relevant lines are:
(EE) RADEON(0): No Display subsection in Screen section "Screen0" for
depth/fbbpp 16/16
(EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration.
Fatal server error:
no screens found
kernel 2.4.21-15.0.3.EL
Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS release 3 (Taroon Update 2)
VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon RV100 QY
[Radeon 7000/VE]
but had trouble starting:
% IDV
Exception in thread "main" java.util.zip.ZipException: No such file or
directory

This could be a problem in the IDV link file. If you cd
to the IDV_1.1b3 directory and run:
./runIDV
does it work?
Yes this works on Enterprise Workstation.
I tried the 1.1b3 on RedHat 7.3, but received the same hanging behavior.
I believe this must be a GL problem.
If I log into the Enterprise RedHat system and then remotely open the
IDV 1.0.1 or 1.1b3 session from the 7.3 system it does work.
Thanks,
Ken
