Hi Ken

Well, what I've done now was to checkout the Paraview III and try the 
compile but the problem subsists:

Determining if glXGetProcAddressARB exists in GL/glx.h FALSE with the 
following output:

Any thougths? I'm using the mesa stuff that comes with debian, should I 
get it and compile it myself? What opengl library are you using, mesa? my 
version is 6.5.1-0.4

  all the best,
