Won't run on Ubuntu

Foldit was not starting; it complained that freeglut could not create an opengl context. It turned out that X was picking up the wrong version of libglx. I move the old old libglx.so to libglx.so.org and then made a symlink to the nvidia one in /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/extensions:

mv libglx.so libglx.so.orig
ln -s libglx.so.195.36.24 libglx.so

ls -lrt /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/extensions/
total 4660
