20031008:idv and RedHat 7.3

Donna,

Thanks for sending the detailed information.  The obvious thing is the
output error

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

Clearly the previous suggestion to get GLX going was not sufficient.
I will talk to a systems man here about GLX, and check around about
this.

GLX is an extension to OpenGL. GLX is what makes X windows system and
OpenGL (Mesa) work together.
We alos need to make usre your Mesa is ok. I will try to get back on
this tomorrow.

I have also asked about this annoying output that I have seen before:
Warning: Cannot convert string "<Key>Escape,_Key_Cancel" to type
VirtualBinding
Warning: Cannot convert string "<Key>Home,_Key_Begin" to type
VirtualBinding
Warning: Cannot convert string "<Key>F1,_Key_Help" to type
VirtualBinding
Warning: Cannot convert string "Shift<Key>F10,_Key_Menu" to type
VirtualBinding
Warning: Cannot convert string "<Key>F10,Shift_Key_Menu" to type
VirtualBinding
Warning: Cannot convert string "<Key>KP_Enter,_Key_Execute" to type
VirtualBinding
Warning: Cannot convert string "Alt<Key>Return,Alt_Key_KP_Enter" to type
VirtualBinding
Some little thing missing in Linux.

Stuart
