Bug Description
Binary package hint: unity
Upgraded to Natty beta 2 on my Acer Aspire 1810TZ that has Intel GMA 4500MHD graphics.
On first login, I was informed that my hardware wasn't suitable for Unity.
/usr/lib/
Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
Error: unable to create the OpenGL context
I tried updating the intel drivers by using the xorg-edgers ppa, but this doesn't seem to have made any difference.
The GMA 4500 is one of the recommended cards - should it not work?

Ed, Could you download the Ubuntu-11.04 beta-2 ISO, and start the live session to check if Unity works in the live session. It seems you have nvidia-current installed too, why so?
