Well, depending on which ATI video card you have, the ati-driver package
may be the only one which supplies OpenGL for your video card's chipset
(above the 9250 must use the drivers, 9250 and below can use the kernel
'radeon' driver and X.org MESA to get OpenGL support). So if you're
getting an error in OpenGL, that may be because you have no video
drivers with OpenGL support installed.

HTH,
Holly
