No Compix or 3d with intel graphics: GMA 3100

Asked by bigred1

Binary package hint: grub

Ubuntu Gutsy Gibbon, Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 3100 on G31 Express Chipset (DG31PR)

Graphics in general work, including video. But Compiz (even with skip-checks) and Google Earth do not work.

The 'intel' graphics driver is being used.

The problem occured even after fresh re-install.

Error message on trying to run Compix ()with SKIP_CHECK ) or alien-arena:
   Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual
   Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
