Can you please avoid use of capitals in thread titles please - it's too shouty for those of us of a nervous disposition.

Hi,
The Pi uses a subset of OpenGL known as OpenGL ES (OpenGL for Embedded Systems). Make no mistake, OpenGL ES is very powerful.
However, GLX is not supported on OpenGL ES; GLX is purely an OpenGL extension to X.
(The OpenGL ES "equivalent" of GLX is EGL. I've not gotten around to meddling with it on the Pi).
What you're doing with swx11, is software rendering. That's ok, whatever works!
