It appears that your video drivers are not installed.
What is your video card? (nvidia/ATI/etc?) and what distribition of linux are you running?
Don't be to worried, this is the most common question asked and easily resolved with a bit of info.

Check your xf86config file or your xorg.conf file (depending on which version you have and which distro). You're missing a line in your "extensions" section. You seem to be missing: load "glx" If that's the case, make sure you also have "load dri" in there are as well. Make sure that neither of these lines start with a "#" - that's a comment delimiter. You can tell it's not loading the extension because of the 3rd line of what you posted. Hope this helps. ... oh yeah: GLX cannot load if the driver is missing. See, both of these posts have a nugget in them somewhere...  |

See, both of these posts have a nugget in them somewhere... From what I understand, you should not load "dri" if you are using an nvidia card.. AFAIK, X will not start if it is enabled in xorg.conf. For ATI cards on the other hand, you must enable both "dri" and "glx" in the xorg.conf. Edit: I was mistaken about the above.. It is possible to load "dri" with an nvidia card.. just not necessary AFAIK. |
