Well, I still have the same issues with SELinux enabled as above, but
the new version of GLUT gives a more meaningful error (a definite
improvement) with SELinux disabled:
$ ./gltest
freeglut (./gltest): OpenGL GLX extension not supported by display ':0.0'
$ rpm -qa freeglut
freeglut-2.4.0-3.i386
freeglut-2.4.0-3.x86_64

I have an nVidia 6600 GT graphics card, but am only running the nv
driver.  Still, I have run similar GLUT programs on machines with no
hardware acceleration, so it seems like some software stuff should
kick in (as well, the programs are 2D only).  Why is this (software
rendering) not happening here?
I tried late last night to get the binary nvidia driver installed
without much success to see if it would work then.  At first it
wouldn't compile, then I get the latest patch and it seemed to
install, but X refused to start.  It was late, so I didn't pursue it
very far.  Has anyone successfully installed the nvidia driver?  I may
try again later.
I did reinstall the mesa rpms after trying this to make sure nothing
got clobbered.
