NVIZ Mesa Problem

[Henk Coetzee]

Hi

I am getting the same problem, with nviz. I have tried installing Mesa
both from rpm and from source. I am currently using the binary
distribution of grass5b7 on RH6.2. I don't seem to have a
libMesaGLU.so.3 anywhere on the machine.

What am I doing wrong, or which RPMs should I install?
