GLX could be missing either because you are using a video driver which does not support it (such as vesa), or else your configuration is not loading the GLX extension. If you tell us what your video hardware is, and copy us the sections headed "Module" and "Device" from the file /etc/X11/xorg.conf (if running Mdk10.1) or /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 (if running an older release), then we can advise you what to do. (Tip:- Copy/paste in linux is mouse highlight/press mouse wheel) BTW: Sending to both newbie and expert lists at once is bad etiquette. If newbie cannot help, *then* go to expert. derek -- www.jennings.homelinux.net http://twiki.mdklinuxfaq.org
