Thinkpad T61 (Nvidia Quadro NVS 140M) Xorg errors.

I'm running Xorg on a ThinkPad T61 and the graphics card is an NVIDIA G86 [Quadro NVS 140M]

X seems to work ok although there are numerous error when exiting. Having read numerous threads regarding NVIDIA supported I'm not sure if I have the best driver.

When I try running KODI I get:-

Code: 
Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0"

Doesn't that suggest a driver error?

Is there a particular section of /var/log/Xorg.0.log. to look at as I'm struggling to post it (too many characters)



pciconf -lv | grep -B3 display

Code: 
vgapci0@pci0:1:0:0:    class=0x030000 card=0x20d817aa chip=0x042910de rev=0xa1 hdr=0x00
    vendor     = 'NVIDIA Corporation'
    device     = 'G86 [Quadro NVS 140M]'
    class      = display
 
NVIDIA's driver isn't correctly setup. It falls back to the old NV driver. For your card you have to use the older x11/nvidia-driver-340. Also see Thread 52311.

EDIT: Hmm, judging by the log you already seem to have that version installed. Do you have any kind of xorg.conf?
 
It looks like it never tried to load the driver. Create /usr/local/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/nvidia-driver.conf:
Code: 
Section "Device"
	Identifier "Card0"
	Driver     "nvidia"
EndSection

No there is no xorg.conf

I added this section and the original error disappeared and was able to load up Kodi, but Kodi crashed when I tried to run one of the add-ons..

There were also quite a number of errors when I logged out of xorg which weren't there before.

Code: 
libpng warning: iCCP:  known incorrect sRGB profile
libpng warning: iCCP:  cHRM chunk does not match sRGB
Bus error (core dumped)

I notice these errors do not appear in Xorg.0.log
