GLX available?

[duff0097 at umn.edu]

If you use the rpm (remove the old, add the new) you don't have to 
recompile anything.

The issue is you need a driver that supports OpenGL (in hardware), or use 
Mesa's software OpenGL (which the rpm does). The libraries that you compile 
in for your OpenGL program (GL, GLU, etc) are besides the point. To 
reiterate: you need OpenGL support in xorg-server. Period. Currently it's 
not in the server at all. So you can't even run glxgears, nevermind doom.
