Hi
I recently downloaded and installed Code Aster 7.4 on Mandrake 10.1 
which comes with Gmsh 1.56
Everything was ok except Gmsh.

It tries to load libGL.so.1.2 but isn't able to do so.
I downloaded the Gmsh-1.58 rpm. Same problem
I compiled from source using Gsl and Fltk. No error during the 
compilation (after getting the required libraries from everywhere)

I guess the problem comes from the 3d stuff, but i don't know where to 
begin to solve this
Mandrake 10.1 uses Xorg with the 3d acceleration. I installed Mesa and 
so on..which doesn't work (weird)

Do you think the problem is related to Gmsh? or to the Mandrake config?
If you need more details, i will be more than happy to help

have a nice day
