Bug Description
The code has a perfect opportunity to check for OpenGL >= 2.0 and exit gracefully if it is not present. I know 1.2 users that try to get Lightspark to work and see every error message except the one that matters. Patch also contains a note about TrueColor being assumed by Lightspark. Another reason why someone might be unable to diagnose a crash.

The patch checks GLX version which currently is at 1.4 so the checks always fails. Moreover returning NULL there does not abort lightspark, exit() would.
