[mythtv] mythuitest screen corruption

Hi,

yesterday I tested mythuitest. I have an epia M10000 system, 2.6.7 
Kernel, DRM 2.4.3 and Unichrome driver. Myth .17 is running fine. My 
first test with libmythui was with software opengl (original xorg 
R8.6.2). The test application was running like expected, but very, very, 
very slow (I expected this also, of course).  So I installed the opengl 
driver of the unichrome project. Glxinfo said yes to direct rendering, 
also glxgears is working with 495 FPS. If I start mythuitest now I get 
only a white screen with an orange box at the bottom of the screen. The 
orange box is fading, so I think this is originally the "Press any key" 
message. I use GANT, so the color of the orange box is like the focus 
color of GANT.

Do I need some special GL extensions? Or what could cause this?

libGL error:

The libGL errors are not a problem. Only shown because I enabled debug 
mode with LIBGL_DEBUG="verbose".

Some other OpenGL apps seemed to work, e.g. Racer from racer.nl is 
running fine.
