I have some problems which I have a suspicion are video related. I keep getting the "GLX" missing on display ":0" error. Why does my system have nVidia drivers on it? I'm using a Radeon HD 6450 and I've never had an nVidia card and haven't knowingly installed anything related. Yet I find this on my system:

Can I safely delete all that? Is there anything else I can try to get rid of that error?
 
So I deleted them and now I don't have that and miscellaneous other errors any more. That's at least something. I have no idea how that nVidia stuff got on there to begin with. Another machine has the same stuff, so I assume it's just pulled in by some program or other that thought it might come in handy some day. Who knows. Anyway, thanks guys for the confirmation.
