It means your video driver installation is broken or your card/driver
doesn't properly support OpenGL. And, since you're using a playback
profile that uses the OpenGL renderer, it fails. The proper fix is to
fix your broken video drivers. Otherwise, you can just change to the
Slim Playback Profile group (in mythfrontend Utilities/Setup|Setup|TV
Settings|Playback, 3rd screen).
