[gentoo-user] xscreensaver GLX issue
Hi! I keep getting this from xscreensaver: Xlib: extension GLX missing on display :0.0. atunnel: display :0.0 does not support the GLX extension. This happens on several screensavers on a machine where they used to work just fine before (on other dists that is). Any ideas?
