Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".


Thats the error I get when I try to run a game. I've updated to current nvidia drivers and altered the xorg.conf as told. Anyone know of other things I need to do to make linux based games run?

I don't see an option composite enable...heres my xorg.conf:

# /etc/X11/xorg.conf (xorg X Window System server configuration file)

# This file was generated by dexconf, the Debian X Configuration tool, using
# values from the debconf database.

# (Type "man /etc/X11/xorg.conf" at the shell prompt.)

I remember this being specific, but the Driver has to be something like Nvidia, or nVidia, or nv, or Nv, or nV. sorry I can't remember, but it's some sort of xorg.conf error. One of those should correct the driver problem.

That's the problem I had in SuSE which corrected the problem.
