Error loading Plugins:libPlugin_VideoOGL.so: can't read info

[zootal]

I'm using Slackware 13.37 64, 2.6.38.7 kernel, NOT windows.

Like many others the past few years, I too am getting this error.

Error loading Plugins:libPlugin_VideoOGL.so: can't read info.

I've read the stickies. They do not help. I've read other messages on this topic, and I have yet to find where anyone found a solution. Since no one seems to know what is causing this let alone how to fix, or at least no one has posted a solution that I've been able to find, I decided to compile from source.

So I checked out the source, installed nvidia toolkit, wxwidgets, and compile. I get:

/usr/local/src/dolphin-emu-git/Source/Plugins/Plugin_VideoOGL/Src/Render.cpp: In constructor 'OGL::Renderer::Renderer()':
/usr/local/src/dolphin-emu-git/Source/Plugins/Plugin_VideoOGL/Src/Render.cpp:259:39: error: 'cgSetErrorHandler' was not declared in this scope
/usr/local/src/dolphin-emu-git/Source/Plugins/Plugin_VideoOGL/Src/Render.cpp:447:2: error: 'cgGetProgramBufferMaxSize' was not declared in this scope
/usr/local/src/dolphin-emu-git/Source/Plugins/Plugin_VideoOGL/Src/Render.cpp:451:27: error: 'cgGLSetDebugMode' was not declared in this scope

I'm not sure what it is looking for - a missing dependency? Is the source code broken? How can I get past this error?

Erm, you seem to be using a vastly outdated source checkout. Update your source checkout to at least 3.0.

I just now used git to get it - I'm not sure how to get anything more current. I started over just now:

git clone https://code.google.com/p/dolphin-emu/ dolphin-emu
cd dolphin-emu
mkdir Build
cd Build
cmake ..
make

And I get the same error.

How do I get the most current source?

Edit: I am following instructions found at http://code.google.com/p/dolphin-emu/wiki/Linux_Build fwiw...

And so I'm trying svn:

svn co http://dolphin-emu.googlecode.com/svn/tags/3.0

and it works up to this point:

Authentication realm: <http://dolphin-cheats-database.googlecode.com:80> Google Code Subversion Repository

I'm not sure what user name/password it is looking for, but it appears to check out the source ok, this seems to have to do with cheats database?

so...

mkdir Build
cd Build
cmake ..
make

And I get the exact same error, from what appears to be the 3.0 source code set.

My bad - somehow I had an antique version of nvidia toolkit. I upgraded to the Feb 2011 version, and now it compiles. And it runs! Wow....impressive...

Thanks for your input, and sorry about the brain fart.....
