You may be right. I'll ask them. I had heard about problems with 7.0, e.g., that there are some kernel conflicts on 7.0 http://faqs.lokigames.com/faq.php3?view=all&product=GL40 http://www.evil3d.net/articles/linux/howto/nvidia/redhat7/
Unfortunately, I can't seem to get at the patches that they imply exist, assuming that's the problem. However, I have the opendx 4.1.0 rpm using the previous version of the nvidia drivers working just fine on one system, but core dumping on another 7.0 system with the current nvidia drivers. When I try 4.1.3 on a 7.0 system with the previous nvidia drivers it works, leading some credence to the suggestion of a conflict (and now having at least one workaround). Thanks.

It appears that it is an Nvidia extension within GL. Now the version I provided is for Redhat 7.1 and is using Nvidia's drivers for 7.1--that may be a problem.
