Other GL screensavers work fine after adding GLCore to modules in
xorg.conf, and molecule works fine on another machine.

If I knew
Hello, thanks for your report.
I'm unable to replicate this in 7.04. Do other 3D screensavers work for
you, or is it a reproducible problem with Molecules only? Is your video
hardware configured to work properly with other OpenGL applications?
