[Linuxppc-users] OpenGL for Power?

Just saw on another thread on the list that driver version 375 brings
OpenGL and X on Power. It is the first version to support it.

>From Jason Furmanek:

... the 375 driver is the first driver to support OpenGL and X on Power.
(older drivers are for compute/cuda only).


The 375 driver has some various issues, though. A new driver is set to drop
at the end of this month.

Received this question and was wondering if anyone can help confirm - a
customer with 8335-GTB (Minsky) is asking if OpenGL is supported on the
server and Ubuntu.  They tried to install it and received the message
below.  Any suggestions?  Thanks!
