Details

When launching Team Fortress 2 or Counter Strike: Source using the latest version of the lib32-nvidia-utils this error is produced:

"Could not find required opengl entry point 'glGetError'! Either your video card is unsupported, or your opengl driver needs to be updated."

This problem goes away when I replaced the latest version of the package with lib32-nvidia-304xx-utils.

Not sure exactly what information you may find useful here, so I'll tell you I'm using a 64-bit installation of Arch (naturally) and using an nVidia 9800GT card. Other games similar to these in that they use OpenGL for rendering (Half-Life, Counter Strike 1.6, Trine 2, Faster Than Light) all work however. Perhaps they do not need to use the contents of this multilib package for some reason and can simply use nvidia-utils.

I hope this information is useful, and new. If it is not, let me know what I can do to help and I should hopefully be able to get all the information you need. Thanks!
This task depends upon
