LarsG (Posted 2006) [#2]

no .rpm file... BlitzMax is just an archive of binary files..

some people use BlitzMax on Linux Mandriva KDE ???

I would suggest you follow one of the methods for a different distribution, as they are generally very similar. Assuming you had a mostly complete (developer) install of Mandriva, you may only need to create some symlinks. Anyway, check out the topic at the top of the forum for more info :-)

"cannot find -lGLU ???" I think you're missing graphics drivers. You can get them from manufacturer's site (if it's nvidia, or ati)

I run Blitzmax in Mandriva 2006, no problems at all, it works PERFECTLY! But you have to get the graphics drivers working. Oh and a time back I sent an email to skidracer with a Mandriva howto, for him to post in the sticky. Maybe he will some day?
