NVIDIA 375.26 is the version I am sitting on.

I have found one very bad and wrong work around using virtualgl that still end
up with a broken opengl solution with Xepher and Xnest so not a place you want
to recommend people testing program.

It does not matter if you want to start up a 8 bit or 24/32bit Xepher or Xnest
both going to fail the same way.
>>Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":

Result no opengl.

This is a autopilot Reported bug by other using different versions of Nvidia to
mine.  So Xepher and Xnest are broken.

The xinit failure is different.
vesa: Ignoring device with a bound kernel driver.  Were it just does not start.

The xinit path might be away to make it work but this is not going to be a
simple do this instruction.

So the xinit instructions if there is a workable path would have to be
rewritten.

So none of these paths are easy any more.

Should have been more clear that the xinit failure is different but the problem
is basically the same.
