[Paraview] paraview

[Mattijs Janssens]

I think it means that your X-server (Xfree or Xorg I assume) does not 
know the GLX (OpenGL over X?) protocol.

In Xfree you can load the module to implement the glx functionality. In 
my /etc/X11/XF86Config file in the 'Module' section I have

Section "Module"
   Load         "dbe"
   Load         "type1"
   Load         "speedo"
   Load         "freetype"
   Load         "extmod"
   Load         "glx"
   Load         "v4l"
#  Load         "dri"
EndSection

and I assume the glx module implements the GLX protocol. After changing 
this file you probably have to restart the X server.

Regards,

Mattijs
