XFree86-DRI problems w/ OpenGL/Mesa apps on FC1

[Didier Casse <didierbe sps nus edu sg>]

Hi everybody,

I upgraded my system to FC1 and just realized that programs that i've
written a long time ago (at the time of RH8) gives the following error on
FC1: (note that it previously worked on RH8, same machine, same hardware!)

Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0".

I'm using FC1 kernel 2.4.22-1.2115.nptl on an i686 machine.

My Video Card is NVIDIA	GeForce 2 MX (generic)

glxinfo gives:

I attached a simple Mesa program + makefile which you can compile by
typing

make helloopengl

and of course running ./helloopengl


Can anybody suggest possible solutions in making my opengl program work
once again? Thanks for any help.

With kind regards,

Didier.
