[UFO Chicago] open gl dependencies...

[Paul Suda]

Yes, I've had alot of Debian fans confront me with this proposition lately.
I actually used to be a Debian user (v 2.1), about 2 years ago, I think.
But at the time I was fairly dependent on some non-free applications and
needed very recent versions of some libraries. Debian provided me with
neither and it was a pain to always have to go get those things and
reinstall everytime I did a new debian install.

Times have changed though. I have weened myself away from Netscape, Pine,
and Pico and am ready to accept a totally GPL compatible system. And I
understand that the "unstable" version of Debian has very up to date
libraries and really isn't all that unstable.

So, if someone will volunteer to burn me a copy of what they think is the
best recent debian release. I have an extra hard drive partition I promise
to install it on and give it a try.
