[mesa-users] help with installation

[Enrico Olivier]

Hi Richard,


Thanks for the quick feedback. I'm installing MESA in my home directory on our astrogroup server. Its linux system, thats all I know at the moment. I'll have to email sysadmin about libpng.

This is something missing from your system -- specifically, the libpng library. Can I ask what operating system you are using?

cheers,

Rich
