Public bug reported: Running 9.10 on a Dell T7500, with two NVS420s. The X log files show that the correct driver and the correct GLX module are loading, and xdpyinfo shows both the GLX and NV-GLX extensions available, but any attempt to run a GLX app fails with the message: "Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual" or some variant (sometimes complaining about a double- buffered visual).
I've tried running with the packages from the nvidia-vdpau PPA repository, but the results are identical.
