Where I work we're going to be ordering some PCs for our user support people (they'll be running whatever the latest version of RedHat is when the machines are installed - probably 6.2, maybe 7.0). I've been given the task of researching OpenGL solutions for the machines. We have some comercial software packages running on our IRIX and AIX boxen that our support staff will be running and exporting the display to their Linux machines. So, we have one machine here with a Matrox Millenium G400. It's OpenGL capable and all that, but I don't know much about OpenGL and as a result aren't sure how to take advantage of it. Is it just a matter of installing the Mesa libs? Also, anyone have any suggestions as far as OpenGL capable hardware and software (like libraries, special Xservers, etc) for Linux? I've been meaning to get a G400 myself and fiddle, but just haven't had the chance. I've heard that Matrox's cards are some of the best out there.
