+Watch the output of the two glxinfo calls. You should see references to your mesa version and you should also see it reporting "GLX version: 1.4", e.g. (shortened):
+<code>
+...
+server glx vendor string: Brian Paul
+server glx version string: 1.4 Mesa 18.0.5
+...
+client glx vendor string: Brian Paul
+client glx version string: 1.4 Mesa 18.0.5
+...
+GLX version: 1.4
+...
+OpenGL vendor string: VMware, Inc.
+OpenGL renderer string: llvmpipe (LLVM 3.8, 128 bits)
+OpenGL core profile version string: 3.3 (Core Profile) Mesa 18.0.5
+...
+</code>
 Instead of creating the scripts mentioned above you can also add this to your .bashrc (or the config of your favourite shell):
 <code>
-export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=<your director>:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}
+export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=<your directory>/libgl-xlib:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}
 </code>
