      <para>
        Anything built with this toolkit needs hardware 3D acceleration from
        the graphics driver at runtime. This is provided by
        <application>MesaLib</application> (or by proprietary graphics drivers),
        but is not available for every graphics card nor for all virtual
        machines. You may wish to review <xref linkend="checking-dri"/>.

<screen><userinput>./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --enable-egl-backend &amp;&amp;
make</userinput></screen>

    <para>
      To test the results, issue: <command>make -k check</command> (you must be
      in an xterm or similar to do this, because it launches some windows). The
      abicheck.sh test fails, if experimental backends have been enabled by the
      use of the parameter <parameter>--enable-egl-backend</parameter>. Without
      that switch, the tests pass.
