[gentoo-user] xdriinfo: libGL is too old

[meino.cramer]

Hi,

in search of the reason for the overlay problem 
reported previously I cam across this:

solfire:/home/user>sudo xdriinfo
libGL is too old.
[1]    23732 exit 1     sudo xdriinfo
solfire:/home/user>

and

solfire:/home/user>l /usr/lib64/libGL.so       
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 33 2014-04-19 11:23 /usr/lib64/libGL.so -> opengl/nvidia/lib/libGL.so.337.12


Why ist libGL too old if installed today (xdriinfo was recompiled
after installation of the nvidia-drivers...). ????

Best regards,
mcc

I get the same (no need for sudo)

I have an older driver (334.21-r3)

I'd like to know as well.
But, I don't have any weird overlay issues.
I had some over a year ago with an outdated flash-plugin.
