Hi Norman

Following are the information about the graphics driver I use
OpenGL vendor string: nouveau
OpenGL renderer string: Gallium 0.4 on NV92
OpenGL core profile version string: 3.1 (Core Profile) Mesa 9.2.1
OpenGL core profile shading language version string: 1.40
OpenGL core profile context flags: (none)
OpenGL core profile extensions:
OpenGL version string: 3.0 Mesa 9.2.1
OpenGL shading language version string: 1.30

I do not know what to expect when I enable "GLSL" under "display". However,
when I do so, the molecule on screen becomes dark and the snapshot still
gives me a blank image.

Thanks
