I think that I understand the problem. The thinstar 300 has an S3
graphics chip (VIA IIUC). I would guess that your server has a
different graphics chip and somehow the system is trying to use the
wrong GLX library (and a proprietary one). This probably wouldn't work
anyway. This is probably an X11 configuration issue that is above my
pay grade. There is an X mailing list:
xorg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
and if they can't help, you can try the development list on x.org.
