Disabling OpenGL

Haldo. I'm new to this forum. I'm running a GNU/Linux distro called gNewSense, which is pretty much Ubuntu with all the non-free snacks ripped out. I installed LÖVE and found that I am missing libGL. This wasn't a problem on Ubuntu, but I guess this certain library is non-free. Anyway, I was wondering if there's a workaround for this problem. Is it possible to compile LÖVE with OpenGL left out? I'm going to be using LÖVE for retro game development, so I don't really need 3D graphics or hardware acceleration. Any help would be seriously snazztastic.

No, sorry. You need OpenGL. Isn't the mesa implementation free?

I have Mesa, but it doesn't seem to be doing it's job... I've checked those files, too. Oh well, I'll just program in C++, I guess. Thanks for the reply.
