I don't understand why you got a mesa-libGL rpm and are trying to
install it? I think doing so could really mess up your system so it
is a good thing it is not letting you.
My email was about adding
Section "Extensions"
Option "Composite" "Disable"
EndSection
to your /etc/X11/xorg.conf assuming you are using the propreitary
NVIDIA driver. Which you should also upgrade to the latest one.

Krish & Paul,
Many thanks for the quick advice. I have downloaded the
mesa-libGL-6.5.1-7.2.el5.x86_64.rpm from the RH network to my desktop.
However, a "smart" window pops up reporting that "a newer version than
/home/jjuranek/Desktop/mesa-libGL-6.5.1-7.2.el5.x86_64.rpm is already
installed". I select "OK" anyway, but a new window pops-up reporting that
"No packages were given for installation". How do I over-ride the "smart"
system to install the legacy driver I need to make sure that everything is
installed in the proper place(s) to make tksurfer happy again?
Thanks so much,
Jenifer
