Error: "GLX extension not found"

[Steve Phillips]

I always get the error "GLX extension not found" when trying to run graphical programs written in Go, V, and other languages. They compile fine, but then won't run.

I assume that these programs basically can't access the graphics card, and that that's what this GLX error means?

Either way, is there some package I need to install in order for this to work?

Thanks!
