[vtkusers] Cone example having libGL problem

[Alfred K. K. Wong]

Dear VTK users:

After compiling VTK successfully, the Cone example (% vtk Cone.tcl) gave
a "Segmentation fault" error, despite "% vtk" started fine by itself.
I believe my problem is the same as the one appended, which was posted
to this list last year.  Unfortunatley I could not find the solution in
the archive.  Please help.

Thanks.

Sincerely,
Alfred Wong


HI
