What is GLXtest and why did it fail?

What is GLXtest and why did it fail?

Chosen solution

GLXtest is a tiny glxinfo-like program. It fails because glXChooseVisual(dpy, DefaultScreen(dpy), attribs) returns NULL. That is all what I know.

Does running glxinfo in a terminal window give any clues if there is something wrong?

Do you have multiple adapters installed?

I have one adapter. glxinfo says:

If I interpret this correctly, the only available visual is 32-bit RGBA.
