I have a faculty member attempting to run/compile OpenGL programs via the SunRay
device.  We've noticed that whenever we run an OpenGL application (glxgears for
example) the following error always occurs before the application does load and
appears to work normally:

libGL: OpenDriver: trying /usr/lib64/dri/swrast_dri.so
libGL error: failed to load driver: swrast


If I run the exact same OpenGL applications on the local server console the
failed to load driver: swrast does NOT appear.  So it appears that the Sunray
service causes this error?  Anyone know how to fix it?  As I mentioned the
applications still seem to work fine on the SunRay, but the error message is a
bit of a concern.

"swrast" is the software rasterizer used when Mesa cannot talk directly to the
GPU, as it cannot for a Sun Ray.  On the server console you're probably loading
the appropriate GPU module instead.

You don't mention the OS in uses, but from /usr/lib64 I'm going to guess it's
one of the Linux distros - check to see if the swrast module for Mesa is in
a separate package that needs to also be installed for that distro.
