[cw-discuss] extension "GLX" missing on display error

[John Wheaton]

Ubuntu... right!  /me am dense (unk!).  Here is the top of my results:

  name of display: :0.0
  display: :0  screen: 0
  direct rendering: Yes

And then of "glxinfo | grep -i dri"
  metoo at kubutnu:~$ glxinfo | grep -i dri
  metoo at kubutnu:~$

So, also no 21.0 and no DRI enabled.

Uh... this is where I display (har har) density again:  21.0?!?!  I've
minorly played with display settings under a few different *nix
environments and I've never seen a display number like that.  Mightn't
that be a contributing factor?
