Re: GLCore doesn't exist -- where find?



What I could find, "glx" seemed to be the nvidia specific one;
also, GLCore is put into the XFConfig file by debconf during the
configure process (or perhaps XFConfig puts it there) ... I tried
commenting out GLCore ... that caused other GL failures, I commented out
all the GL stuff and then DRI complained, commented out DRI and then
the radeon module itself complained ...

Getting it down to GLCore is the fewest errors I get, though that one is
fatal from a startup standpoint
