Intel graphics card and OpenGL GLX?

[rebeltaz]

I know this is old, but since I never got a complete solution to this problem, I thought I'd post the solution I found, in case any one else needs it:

sudo apt-get purge nvidia*
sudo apt-get install --reinstall xserver-xorg-video-intel libgl1-mesa-glx libgl1-mesa-dri xserver-xorg-core
sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg

and then reboot ...

The second and third lines are not my own, they were posted originally by Temüjin. Hopefully, this will be of some use to someone. It worked for me...

Thank you thank you. This got my compiz working after upgrading to 10.04

Always glad to be of service!

Thanks a lot, this should help me too as this seems to the exact problem I am having. I ran the above commands, but yet to reboot. Meanwhile I found the GL.conf is being linked to the nvidia file by the alternatives tool. I ran the following to fix that -
sudo update-alternatives --remove gl_conf /usr/lib/nvidia-current/ld.so.conf

THANK YOU GUYS!!!

All your solutions together and first deleting the xorg.conf* files from /etc/X11 got my issues solved with XBMC!

... you tried to install the nvidia driver, and it overwrote the open-source version of libglx.so with the proprietary nvidia version, so you need to reinstall the open-source mesa stack.
Try this:

sudo nvidia-settings --uninstall
sudo apt-get install --reinstall xserver-xorg-video-intel libgl1-mesa-glx libgl1-mesa-dri xserver-xorg-core
sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg

Reboot.

Thank you, friend!
Your solution helped me in such problem:

# glxinfo
# glxgears
# google-earth
-- all of them gave "Xlib: extension GLX missing on display :0.0" error report...

# lspci
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)

After, by yoyr advice,
# sudo nvidia-settings --uninstall
# sudo apt-get install --reinstall xserver-xorg-video-intel libgl1-mesa-glx libgl1-mesa-dri xserver-xorg-core
# sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
and reboot
the problem has gone!
Thank you!

Big help, the purge solved my problem. Now I have Nvidia completely off and can enjoy the great battery life and still play my minecraft.

Awesome, this along with a posting from Eugene Crosser here:

Fixed my openGL issues as well as helped me reinstall libgl1-mesa-glx and libgl1-mesa-dri which wouldn't reinstall for me.
