You can run opengl with mesa libraries, which do opengl in software. There is no modern card that has free drivers for opengl in hardware. Only a few older cards have such drivers. If you want hardware opengl you are stuck with the nvidia driver, but for just running X in 2D, the nv driver generally works great. For testing a problem, it is often handy to elliminate what you can't get source code for, such as the nvidia driver.
