xhost +
xhost: unable to open display ""


which happens if I do root or not. Also, when I run xvfb, it doesn;t list GLX as an extension and I have no idea why. It's running on a VM without a graphics card set up. I'm not an advanced linux user but hopefully it isn't something really simple that I am just missing so I don't feel too dumb.

Thanks again for your help.


edit: the export DISPLAY call I had in my xvfb script wasn't being picked up for some reason; doing it manually outputs the following for xhost +

access control disabled, clients can connect from any host

but I get the same error for glxinfo
