Ah, yes...for some reason direct rendering crashes with an assertion on newer Intel drivers (since 2.1.x I think).

You'll want to use indirect rendering (which should be accelerated, assuming you have AIGLX turned on—if you're using the desktop effects, you definitely do):

$ cd (wherever your planeshift folder is)
$ export LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=1
$ ./psclient

See if that helps.  If it is, you'll want to put the export LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=1 line in your .bash_profile or in the "psclient" script itself.

Good luck!

Hi.  I get the following error when I entered  export LIBGL_ALWAYS_DIRECT=1 first:

Well it seems you are not exporting the right thing it is INDIRECT not DIRECT
