Sorry for not including it in the original posting but here is the
section from xorg.conf which includes the "load glx". Following that is
the error message it generates in the log file. Then the listing
of /usr/lib/modules/extensions/ which (sort of) contains a libglx.so. I
think this may be where the problem is but I'm clueless as to why libglx
wouldn't be working.
-----
Section "Module"
# This loads the DBE extension module.
Load "dbe" # Double buffer extension
# This loads the miscellaneous extensions module, and disables
# initialisation of the XFree86-DGA extension within that module.
SubSection "extmod"
Option "omit xfree86-dga" # don't initialise the DGA extension
EndSubSection
# This loads the Type1 and FreeType font modules
Load "type1"
Load "freetype"
# This loads the GLX module
Load "glx" # libglx.a
Load "dri" # libdri.a
EndSection
-----
Which results in (Xorg.log):
(II) LoadModule: "glx"
(WW) Warning, couldn't open module glx
(II) UnloadModule: "glx"
(EE) Failed to load module "glx" (module does not exist, 0)
