@zakweb3, thanks a lot! It worked.

I actually found another problem back in February... there was a space on the folder name I was using for the driver file (Linux newbie, I swear I won't do it again!). I managed to compile the driver after fixing that, but there were still things that were not working right. One program in particular was still giving me problems (a Windows CAD software I was running using Wine).

It's my husband's computer, so I waited until he had a more serious crash before fiddling with the driver again... this happened today. So I used your fix for the glvnd library, then recompiled the driver after pulling the mods from github. And lo and behold... not only did it work, it also fixed the problem I was having with my CAD software.

So, thanks a lot for the fix!
