I previously installed a bunch of GL packages (mesag-dev mesag-widgets-dev
mesag3 mesag3-widgets) and then installed the stuff from nvidia's website
to replace the glx libs, all before I knew these deb packages existed.
So I installed nvidia-glx and nvidia-kernel and ran the build scripts, but
then to install them I had to remove a bunch of the other mesag3 packages
(and even some x packages).
The result is that I have these nvidia libs but no GL header files to
compile with. The mesag-dev packages (gl.h etc) seem to conflict with the
nvidia-glx.
What have I missed?
