You need a linux OpenGL shlib to go with your Linux executable.  You
need to have:

    /usr/compat/linux/usr/lib/libGL.so.1

Usually that's installed by the linux_base* port. Except that the
emulators/linux_base-8 port has been stripped down to just the hard
minimum, so it doesn't contain any of the X11R6 stuff --- that's a
change from earlier Linux emulation ports. Try installing the
x11/linux-XFree86-libs port to go along with it.

	Cheers,
