E.g., REAPER: failed to load driver: swrast #9
Description
Cannot launch e.g, REAPER with the Debian Runtime (at least on a machine with a Nvidia GPU). Terminal shows:
libGL error: No matching fbConfigs or visuals found
libGL error: failed to load driver: swrast
TODO: Check whether it works on non-Nvidia (e.g., Intel) machines?
Could installing mesa-utils and libgl1-mesa-glx in the Linux userland improve this? Would we also need to install Nvidia drivers on the Linux userland side?

It seems like Nouveau is hardcoded in swrast_dri.so in the Linux userland rather than the official Nvidia driver?
(if we can't find a solution, we may need to contact Aaron Plattner at Nvidia who knows about these things)
