There may very well be applications (games especially) that simply aren't supported on hardware that doesn't provide the proper support.  For example, the GLX extension has to do with OpenGL support - and if its looking for that extension in XFree86, it may be needing hardware 3D acceleration ... if that's not available, then its not available ;-).

I'm not sure that that's the issue here, but that's something to keep in mind as we go through these things.

Well, You don't have to TRY to break everything ;^), but yes report it
either here or bugzilla. David and I would like to get the next release
as solid as we can. I was just getting ready to do beta2 ISO's, since I
hadn't heard many application bug reports, but maybe it's too soon, if
you're seeing problems.

Thanks for the feedback,

Of course I have no idea if any one else is having these problems. This is
just what I receive.

1. Game- Bzflag- wouldn't run when I used the menu. Tried Cmd line, I get
this:

Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
Can't create window. Exiting.

2.Game- Chromium- looks like same problem
[dippy@localhost dippy]$ chromium
