glxinfo error on Slackware64-current


Not sure what's happening here. I want to use the latest amd driver with directx9 and hardware acceleration. Any ideas?

Code:
glxinfo
name of display: :0.0
Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual or fbconfig
Code:
grep glx /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[    54.387] (II) LoadModule: "glx"
[    54.425] (II) Loading /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so
[    54.438] (II) Module glx: vendor="X.Org Foundation"
[    54.439] (II) UnloadModule: "glx"
[    54.439] (II) Unloading glx
[    54.439] (EE) Failed to load module "glx" (module requirement mismatch, 0)

that is done by mesa so slackpkg reinstall mesa. if you had a proprietary installed and you uninstalled it I would reinstall mesa.
since you did not say the slack version or the graphics card I will just figure default 14.1 and intel card.

I had the proprietary driver installed. I did 'aticonfig --remove' after updating to current. Reinstalling mesa didn't seem to change anything.

Reinstalling xorg-server did the trick. Thanks.
