Hi Alan, At the time of the OP I had Mesa-7.10 To clean up(?) things, I just installed Mesa-7.10.3 [/usr/lib]$ ls -ltr libGL.so* -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 476876 2011-01-14 12:22 libGL.so.1.2-Mesa-7.10 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 478203 2011-09-28 18:54 libGL.so.1.2 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 2011-09-28 18:54 libGL.so -> libGL.so.1 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 2011-09-28 19:02 libGL.so.1 -> libGL.so.1.2 Result: Firefox (6.0) NO longer puts out the "NV-GLX" message(s). Case solved! However, Opera (11.51) still does. FWIW, []$ objdump -p /usr/lib/libXext.so.6 2>/dev/null | grep NEEDED NEEDED libX11.so.6 NEEDED libxcb.so.1 NEEDED libXau.so.6 NEEDED libXdmcp.so.6 NEEDED libdl.so.2 NEEDED libc.so.6 []$ ldd /usr/lib/firefox-6.0/firefox-bin | egrep 'libXext|libGL' libXext.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXext.so.6 (0xb58e8000) libGL.so.1 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.so.1 (0xb4e66000) []$ ldd /usr/local/lib/opera/opera | egrep 'libXext|libGL' libXext.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXext.so.6 (0xb7608000) Opera is the only one I install from binaries (because you must). Next upgrade, I'll pay more attention to the /usr/lib/ situation.
