bzflag help! First sound, now window creation problems. (I have nvidia 1.0-5328)


Bzflag used to run fine on mandrake. When I reinstalled it on slackware (had to download it manually since it wasn't included), firstly, the sound wouldn't work, tolerated. Funny, since the sound used to work on the same machine, and of course sound works for the rest of slackware. Now after a while, it says:

Code:
Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
Can't create window.  Exiting.
Then it exits. Agh. Does it have something to do with my multiple displays? I have an nvidia 1.0-5328 driver which was different from the 4496 drivers I installed when I used mandrake, might this be the problem?

Problem: the module and drivers are specified as loaded in xfree86config.

Also, Caeda, I ALREADY VIEWED THE DAMN INSTALLATION GUIDE FOR NVIDIA DRIVERS ON THIS SITE. I KNOW GLX IS SUPPOSED TO BE LOADED, ITS IN MY CONFIG FILE!!!!

And also, there is no driver load, only load_MODULE.
