GAMGI Installation: Requirements

Installation Requirements

### Hardware

To run properly, GAMGI requires a graphics environment with non-indexed rgb colors, with at least 16 bits per pixel. A 3-button mouse or equivalent is important to rotate, move and scale objects interactively.

### Software

GAMGI can be installed on any computer running Linux/Unix with the standard X Window System. GAMGI requires the following libraries: Gtk, Mesa, GtkGLext, Expat and Freetype.

Gtk, GtkGLext and GLU Mesa are distributed under the LGPL license. GL Mesa and Expat are distributed under the MIT (BSD-like) license. Freetype is distributed under the FTL (BSD-like) and GPL licenses.

Since release 0.13.2, GAMGI should run fine with any version of Gtk 2. Previous releases required Gtk 1. GAMGI should run fine with any version of Mesa or OpenGL but versions older that Mesa 6.4.2 are not recommended, due to light bugs. GAMGI should run fine with any version of Expat, Freetype 2 and GtkGlext.
