The same probleblem here -  the server won't start because
"No available video device"- could not load OpenGL subsystem

There's certainly a way around this, but my tired mind can't figure this
out at 3 am after a couple of bottles of very nice portuguese red wine -
somebody please mail a work-around on the list?
