Wave,

This is a common error, and it simply means that you need the mesa drivers:

xlib-mesa-gl-dev (6.8.1 or greater)
xlib-mesa-glu-dev (6.8.1 or greater)

You may also want to install:

libsdl1.2-dev
g++ (3.3)
gcc (3.3)
libstdc++ (5_3.3)

You *should* be able to use RPMs for SuSE, at least as my memory serves. (I haven't used SuSE since 8.1) You should be able to locate them for SuSE instead of the Red Hat compatibles -- If memory serves right, the Red Hat RPMs work under SuSE as well most of the time.

1) open a Terminal window (such as Konsole, if you are using KDE, and what ever GNOME uses equivalent to it)

2) either:
su root [press enter], then enter root password
rpm -i [enter the full name of the rpm, including .rpm]

-[or]-

sudo rpm -i [enter the full name of the rpm, including .rpm]

You will see what's going on in the terminal window, good or bad :-)

As far as "YOU" goes, I can't help you there... Thats a new one to me!
