Hi,
I had the same problem when i was using my older laptop. I had
installed Mesa/OpenGL and it worked fine. Also the wings3d worked fine,
but Kicad did not. Now, I have a new laptop with 3D acceleration and it
works fine. So, I guess that you need to install the 3D acceleration
drivers.
I have the same operationg system (Debian Sarge) in both laptop. The
OpenGL and Mesa are the same and also the X windows. The only difference
is in the acceleration hardware.
When I run the glxgears program i get about 1300 FPS
Best Regards, Juan

I forgot to say, but I already checked screen depth (24 bit color),
and checked MesaLib. Also Wings3d *does* work, but kiCAD doesn't.
Yex, it gives me a blank windows (besides menu bar), but doesn't seem
to be a problem wiht mesa.

I tried to create a link /usr/bin/wings -> /usr/bin/wings3d, but
it
won't help. KiCAD doesn't provide any clue on what is wrong, and
I
don't know what to do.

Oh yeah, one more thing. To verify if Mesa/OpenGL 3D rendering is
working with
your video card at all, you can try running one of the Mesa demos
like
"gears" or something.
