In case you haven't already, please read my reply to Ralf's e-mail, it answers your point about fixing my graphics driver.

Also, if all the GL hacks can detect that my display doesn't support the GLX extension that they need, how come XScreensaver can't? And disable the GL hacks automatically?

My ~/.xscreensaver has "GL:" in front of many (all?) of the GL hacks, so AFAICT XScreensaver should be able to tell what hacks need GL and should be disabled.

This is an idiotic idea.  Fix your machine instead.

All the time spent implementing this crazy blacklist detection system
of yours would be better spent getting your video driver functioning
properly.
