Hi,

i'm trying to implement GLG2D (which uses JOGL) into jDosBox (Java Dos Emulator).
jDosBox does start with the new GLG2D Renderer but it gives this warning:
"libEGL warning: DRI2: failed to authenticate"
and so it does not use JOGL OpenGL.

Tested with xUbuntu x64 13.10 and Arch Linux x64, both with Nvidia Drivers. And i tried different versions of JOGL.
I think it's the Nvidia Driver because the OpenGL test benchmark (glmark2-es2) prints out exact the same warning and does not start.

Is this a known issue of JOGL or Linux? Is there a workaround?
