Thanks Alan,

your Xwin_GL seems to greatly improve OpenGL support !

Most of GLUT demos now run perfectly. Only a few of them return a 
"GLXBadContext"

Unfortunately Tecplot also quit with "GLXBadContext".
I'll try to contact support about this problem.

Be sure I'll get you informed if I find a solution.

Regards.
