[TriLUG] Gasp, OpenGL library problems!

Well, looks like you've got it fixed, but here's maybe some of the causes:

Probably because the library lives in /usr/lib/opengl/xorg-x11/lib/
which is not in your /etc/ld.so.conf list.  Put that directory into
that list and run ldconfig to update the dynamic link cache.

Do you have Load "dri" in your xorg.conf as well?
