This e-mail is directed to SGI, but other Performer users may be
interested. We have recently loaded Performer 2.0 onto our REII
system. Initially, we loaded the _ogl libraries to use with the new
Vega 2.0 software from Paradigm simulation. We found out that the
_ogl libraries do not work well with the REII and Paradigm folks
recommended we switch to the _igl libraries. The switch did fix some
of our problems.

However, the Performer 2.0 demo programs require both _igl and _ogl
libraries be loaded. We wish to remove the _ogl libraries, to avoid
any future confusion problems, since the non-postfixed file names
(i.e. libpfdu versus libpfdu_igl) are linked to the _ogl files, not
the _igl files. However, we cannot remove the _ogl libraries without
also having to remove perfly, even though perfly actually is linked
to perfly_igl.

It would have been nice to have a choice on which demos to load, as
it was with all of the other libraries. At this time I see no way to
remove the _ogl libraries withou losing perfly (if I work within the
constraints of swmgr).
