Xlib: extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0" Bad visual

[cardlabuser]

Hi there,

I'm having problem with

Xlib: extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0"
Bad visual

error when I attemp to run demos from Volumizer (by SGI). However, I had no problem when I try 'glxgears' for example.

Few notes:

1) I used the --nodeps option with rpm to force the Volumizer (linux-32) installation.

2) I am using
- nVidia Quadro FX 4500 and updated its driver.
- RedHat EL W 3 with most recent updates
- Dual-processor (Athlon Optra 258) HP xw 9300

3) 3D Opengl is otherwise fine, e.g. glxgears

4) glxinfo output is below

5) XF86Config file does not have
load dri

6) I tried the lates nVidia driver Version: 1.0-8178 and 1.0-7676. Neither helped solving the problem.

I appreciate any feedback.

Thanks,

I fixed the problem by re-installation of Volumizer.

I went ahead and properly uninstalled Volumizer rpm's -except license-- and reinstalled them back.

It fixed the problem.
