tuxracer sound

[jb]

I seem to remember I was having a different problem with XFree86-Mesa-libGL 
and libGLso.1 not being recognized so I tried removing XFree86-Mesa-libGL 
with the intent to reinstall it again thru synaptic and it removed a whole 
slew of dependant programs, apt-get being one of them as I was using it. It 
is funny now, which I'm sure you can imagine what devastation it caused. ; )
Bottom line, I ain't gonna mess with libGL, so there must be another way to 
recompile, maybe with tuxracer.spec so it points to libGL and satisfies the 
dependency? Hehehe, anyone know if the tuxracer sound works with fedora core 
1 and core 2 ? I'll be switching to core 2 when they release the stable 
version, which I think they are releasing later this month.

P.S. thanks for the mpage info Dave, I used to waste way too much ink and 
paper.
