It's one of my own apps that uses SDL and openGL.
It's quite weird because debug builds bomb out with:

Failed loading glXGetSwapIntervalMESA: /usr/lib/nvidia/libGL.so.1: undefined
symbol: glXGetSwapIntervalMESA

BUT if I do a release build, it works ok but comes out with:

NVIDIA: could not open the device file /dev/nvidiactl (Permission denied).
NVIDIA: Direct rendering failed; attempting indirect rendering.

Any help much appreciated...I've no idea what's gone wrong :(
(As I said, all this used to work fine under FC5).

Cheers,
Kos

Which app is it? Try to recompile it but it seems that app was hard linked
against a specific libgl which is bad I think.
