John, Are you doing "glxinfo" in a terminal in KDE (or Gnome, or whatever) in your Linux computer? Or are you doing it in a remote machine, perhaps through telnet or (better) ssh? OpenGL support is a property of the X server, so if you are connecting from a remote computer running an X server with no GLX support, it is normal to get those messages.
