That looks like a problem with your XServer not supporting OpenGL/GLX/3D
stuff in general, not something specific to pymol.

Try running 'glxgears' or any other OpenGL application, does that work?

Michael,

This is what can sometime happen when you update system libraries
underneath vendor-supplied OpenGL drivers.  If you reinstall your graphics
drivers after the update, then the problem should go away. 

Cheers,
Warren
