The JDK1.5 beta release notes say that you need GLX version 1.3 or
higher to use the new OpenGL pipeline. I think I have the latest
OpenGL/DRI/DRM/AGP drivers, but my "glxinfo" command shows that my
client and server GLX are only at version 1.2.

(Other 3D OpenGL applications work fine and run fast, but I can't run
Java 1.5 beta with the OpenGL pipeline - the "using OpenGL pipeline"
message does not appear.)

My system log says "[drm] Initialized radeon 1.10.0 20020828 on minor 0:
ATI Radeon LW Mobility 7500 M7"

glxinfo says:
server glx vendor string: SGI
server glx version string: 1.2
server glx extensions:
    GLX_EXT_visual_info, GLX_EXT_visual_rating, GLX_EXT_import_context
client glx vendor string: SGI
client glx version string: 1.2
client glx extensions:
    GLX_EXT_visual_info, GLX_EXT_visual_rating, GLX_EXT_import_context

Also, as the release notes say is required, I do have GL_ARB_imaging
enabled, and I have up to date OpenGL driver:
OpenGL vendor string: Tungsten Graphics, Inc.
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI Radeon 20020611 AGP 1x x86/MMX/SSE TCL
OpenGL version string: 1.2 Mesa 4.0.4

My question is, how can I find the latest drivers? I think I'm using the
latest drivers. Another question is, why do other applications run fine,
but Java requires a newer version?

Thanks,
-Keith
