Public bug reported:

Running 9.10 on a Dell T7500, with two NVS420s. The X log files show
that the correct driver and the correct GLX module are loading, and
xdpyinfo shows both the GLX and NV-GLX extensions available, but any
attempt to run a GLX app fails with the message: "Error: couldn't find
RGB GLX visual" or some variant (sometimes complaining about a double-
buffered visual).

I've tried running with the packages from the nvidia-vdpau PPA
repository, but the results are identical.
