Package: nvidia-glx Version: 1.0.9755-1 Hi,
After an upgrade a few weeks ago, many of my applications that use gtk started dying with libcairo assertion failures. After some digging, I found that the root cause of the problem was that, when I logged in via xdm, the subsequent X session couldn't find the nvidia GLX drivers. If I kill xdm and run startx from the console, everything works great. >From my .xsession-errors: Xsession: X session started for donimal at Wed Jun 6 12:44:55 CDT 2007 Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
