<pre>Good news and bad news, and light at the end of the tunnel
LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE was getting set to one in
/etc/X11/Xsession.d/50_check_unity_support. So I overrode the value as below:
cat 50_check_unity_support
# This file is sourced by Xsession(5), not executed.
# If the hardware does not pass unity_support_test, fall back to LLVMpipe
# which does.
if [ "x$DESKTOP_SESSION" = "xubuntu" ]; then
/usr/lib/nux/unity_support_test || export LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=1
fi
export LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=0
which set LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE to zero:
printenv | grep ALWAYS
LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=0
Unfortunately there was no change in the behavior of the system and we still
see unity not supported...
/usr/lib/nux/unity_support_test -p

based on your comment about the r300 driver, I tried a forced loading of R300
by putting it into an xorg.conf... in Xorg.0.log we see
[ 54.122] (II) LoadModule: "r300"
[ 54.122] (WW) Warning, couldn't open module r300
[ 54.122] (II) UnloadModule: "r300"
[ 54.123] (II) Unloading r300
[ 54.123] (EE) Failed to load module "r300" (module does not exist, 0)
I'm clearly missing a package... which one?? Thanks</pre>
