Window system doesn't support OpenGL. Not even glxinfo works

Hi,
the Artix maintainer managed to break ALL software packages that use GLX.
Code: [Select]
glxinfo
name of display: :0
Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual or fbconfig
Code: [Select]
glxgears
Error: couldn't get an RGB, Double-buffered visual
Code: [Select]
pacman -Qs mesa
local/glu 9.0.3-1
    Mesa OpenGL utility library
local/libva-mesa-driver 1:24.1.3-1
    Open-source VA-API drivers
local/mesa 1:24.1.1-1
    Open-source OpenGL drivers
local/mesa-utils 9.0.0-4
    Essential Mesa utilities

WTF Artix maintainer you break the GLX system and even 5 days after the first error reports come in https://forum.artixlinux.org/index.php/topic,7058.0.html it is still broken.
Anydesk is not working (Window system doesn't support OpenGL.)
Ruskdesk is not working (Failed to start Flutter renderer: No GL implementation is available
Cannot load libcuda.so.1)

That is enough. This Arch Linux / Artix Linux mashup is not working. Too many fuck ups.
I'm changing to https://voidlinux.org/

Quick question - are you using the "extra" repo? While I have no need to use GLX, I did install glxinfo for shitz n giggles using "extra"
Seemed to work for me - then again and as I mentioned, I have no reason to use it so my test very well could be invalid.

BTW, running glxgears did produce the spinning gears to my surprise.
and running pacman -Qs mesa produced the smae output as yours.
The diffs could be the video card and drivers - I never use Nvidia cards.
