This is defined in glext.h, though. Did you change this to use the system wide glext.h? Also, post about your OS version and gfx card driver version. Which package did you use for compilation of gl stuff?

Fedora 11
ATI 4800 HD Radeon Latest
Default Packages

gfx *driver* version, not gfx card version. Also, did you download the SDK, or do you use some rpm? Did you alter IrrCompileConfig? Which glx packages do you have installed?

how do i check all this

Some info you get from glxinfo (glx version and direct rendering value).
Some info you should know (did you download the SDK or install some rpm, did you alter IrrCompileConfig) as you did that yourself.

Driver version should be known if you installed it - also most graphic card vendors usually have some tool which can tell you that info.

Yeah, forget it. I can't do any of that.

Hm, in most cases it will already work if you simply install the official driver from ATI. Can/did you do that?

Jookia · Post by **Jookia** » Fri Nov 13, 2009 6:19 am

Yes, I did. I downloaded the driver, ran it and then tried to compile 1.6. I haven't edited IrrCompileConfig and after undefing _IRR_OPENGL_USE_EXTPOINTER_, it compiles up to cdjpeg.c or something that requires io.h which I don't have.

Why do you undef the extension pointers? This is in general a bad idea, or even a very bad one.

Sorry, I don't know redhat. Find out in which package io.h is and install it. Also - how do you compile? With the makefile or with codeblocks project file or do you try to use some custom solution?

io.h is for WIndows systems. Seems oyu messed up the IrrCompileConfig

Jookia · Post by **Jookia** » Fri Nov 13, 2009 11:29 am

I beyond repair the codeblocks file, didn't I?

I don't know what your last sentence meant, but I just tested with EXTPOINTERS disabled and it compiles fine for me. Though it won't be of much help, as this makes the app depending on the OpenGL library of the system that it was compiled on. Other GL versions or libs may miserably crash. So, as said, don't do it unless really necessary.
