Hello all,
After installing recordmydesktop and Mplayer, and adding support for mpeg3, Quicktime and ffmpeg, then recompiling gem, i get the following error everytime I try to create a Gemwin:
on the terminal:
Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0". Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
well, it seems like your Xserver is missing the GLX (openGL for X) extensions. since Gem highly depends on openGL, it refuses to continue...
which driver are you using? probably your Xorg.conf needs tweaking.
do other openGL apps work? a good start is glxgears (if this doesn't work, chances are minimal to non-existant that Gem will...)
Any help will be appreciated.
if glxgears do work, try setting the environmental variable GEM_SINGLE_CONTEXT to 1. (setting this variable can be considered the first voodoo to do when problems occur)
