OpenGL Shader is a requirement for the gcc3 version of performer.
rpm should have complained about the lack of shader rpms when you
installed as well.

a lot of people skip past this page:

http://www.sgi.com/products/evaluation/Linux_performer_3.0.1/

but Shader is listed as a requirement. we're modifying the 3.0.2 download
page to have a reminder about this on the page that has the rpms.

OpenGL Shader can be found at http://www.sgi.com/software/shader/

bad things will happen if you do this. install Shader and all will be
well.
