Hi guys

When I try to install a new package (glScene), everything seems to compile fine, only to stop with a fatal error:

/usr/bin/ld: warning: ../link.res contains output sections; did you forget -T?
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lXxf86vm
lazarus.pp(133,1) Error: Error while linking
lazarus.pp(133,1) Fatal: There were 1 errors compiling module, stopping

what is this lXxf86vm file?

I have installed the new Lazarus (lazarus_1.0RC1-0_i386.deb and fpc_2.6.0-120728.deb).

Thanks in advance
Chavoux

I believe you are using ubuntu, and this is happening because a missing library.

Try to install the following package: libxxf86vm-dev

sudo apt-get install libxxf86vm-dev

Thanks Daniel

I am actually using Debian, but that solved the problem.

Slightly off-topic.

I learned that glScene has been purchased by Embarcadero and has been removed from open Source.

Is there still a free version of glScene and is that easily/somehow usable with Lazarus ?

No, GLScene isn't purchased by Embarcadero, is still Open Source and yet developed: http://wiki.glscene.info/

Maybe you mean DXScene (http://www.ksdev.com/ &
http://www.ksdev.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=987 ) that is not more supported or developed as free.

Fortunately I'm using GLScene :D

I think it's DXScene, not GLScene, that EB uses:
