Woot, thanks, took care of one everlasting issue I have had since LONG
LONG ago. Now I only have:

[greg@duke:~]$ find /lib /usr -name libglut\* -ls
4604070    4 drwxr-xr-x   2 root     root         4096 Apr 21  2004 /usr/share/doc/libglut3

Now I don;t get segfaults on 2 OpenGL games I play... (Commercial ones)
