Hi Manie,

By "latest" Nvidia drivers, do you mean 6629?  What bit depth are you
running (8, 16, 32)?  Which Nvidia board do you have?

I think I'd need to see the full output of glxinfo to diagnose the
problem further.  If glxinfo reports errors, then it sounds like your
drivers aren't configured properly.

Hi,

When I try to enable the opengl pipeline, I get the following
message; "Could not enable OpenGL pipeline (GLX 1.3 not available)"

I am running linux (Gentoo) and have the latest nvidia drivers
installed (nvidia-glx and nvidia-kernel).

when I run "glxinfo | grep glx" I get:
.........
Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual
server glx vendor string: NVIDIA Corporation
server glx version string: 1.3
server glx extensions:
client glx vendor string: NVIDIA Corporation
client glx version string: 1.3
client glx extensions:
..........

when I run  "glxinfo | grep direct"
............
Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual
direct rendering: Yes
............

I can run other opengl programs like glxgears, and it
run's fast (1600x1200) 166 frames per second.

According to the messages, GLX 1.3 is supported.  I have not loaded
the DRI module,
in my xorg-x11 config file.  The nvidia splash screen shows when I start KDE
and I have run "opengl-update nvidia".  Is here something I missed?

Thanks in advance
