Hi all, I have a problem with Doom3 engine based games. When I try to start Quake4 I get this error:

Code:
...
-------- Initializing Sound System ----------
sound system initialized.
---------------------------------------------
--------------- R_InitOpenGL ----------------
Initializing SDL subsystem
Loading GL driver 'libGL.so.1' through SDL
TODO: Sys_SetClipboardData
********************
ERROR: SDL_SetVideoMode failed: Couldn't find matching GLX visual
********************
--------------- BSE Shutdown ----------------
---------------------------------------------
WARNING: rvServerScanGUI::Clear() - invalid scanGUI

idRenderSystem::Shutdown()
Sys_Error: SDL_SetVideoMode failed: Couldn't find matching GLX visual


And when I try to start Doom3 I get this error:

Code:
...
----- Initializing Sound System ------

--------------------------------------
----- R_InitOpenGL -----

I know OpenGL and SDL works, because I can run Neverwinter Nights and Quake3 w/o any problem, it's just with this two games.

Any ideas what I can do here?
Greetings and TIA, Matthias
