I'm aware of the GLX version / extension issues. The check is more or less a
workaround for buggy drivers like ATI's :( I'm against workarounds but in this
case without it, there won't be any OpenGL support on ATI's drivers as
GLX_SGIX_fbconfig is a requirement for wine. (I have submitted a bugreport) BTW
I had the same stuff in opengl32.
The issue is that ATI's drivers don't advertise GLX_SGIX_fbconfig (which really
all opengl drivers do) but on the other hand they advertise GLX client version
1.3 which promoted GLX_SGIX_fbconfig to core functionality. So ATI doesn't
advertise GLX_SGIX_fbconfig but it is available because their libs are 1.3.
They only ship the 1.3 functions so not the SGIX ones.
When direct rendering is enabled we look at the GLX client version :( This only
works for fbconfig stuff and not for other things like pbuffers (it does work
on ATI cards but not on Mesa).
I hope this clears it up,
Roderick
