hi,
i think most of your problems arise because u have no direct rendering. u have to use an opengl card with dri support like matrox g400 etc.. u can find the supported cards + more info at dri.sourceforge.net.
once u have a working dri environment gem should load without the "could not create context blah .... " (i dont have the correct error in my mind).
with the commandline command "glxinfo" u can look up if u have direct rendering or not.
cheers

I get the same message and yes it works, but as soon as you destroy the window, pd crashes. I think it has something to do with the GL/Mesa libs which are included in XFree86 4.1.0.

hi,
thanks for your hints, you're right, gem works if you ignore this message which seemed to me as a fatal error, but, no, after that, it "somewhat" works.
