Umm, a google around indicates that they don't support GLX_SGIX_pbuffer & fbconfig, but offer GLX_ATI_render_texture instead: http://www.gamedev.net/community/forums/topic.asp?topic_id=191510 I believe that Fred has got a cross-platform render-texture library to work with Map in order to extend headless mode to windows - hopefully this will be more robust than the code that I wrote and work across a greater range of cards on Linux as well. I'll make up another release candidate when it's added.
