You might try restarting your computer.

If the error persists, doing a system restore might help, if your system has "System Restore".

Providing some system information might help others to diagnose the problem.

It's possible that deleting your settings.xml file might help.

Do you get the login screen to appear?

The "GL rendering" Interface is a part of the Graphics-Driver. May u 've to update this Driver, however try first to reinstall u're SL-Viewer. Good Luck.
