Xgl doesn't start:

Fatal server error:
no screens found

Here's the commandline I used (from gdm.conf):
[server-Standard]
name=Standard server
#command=/usr/X11R6/bin/X -nolisten tcp -deferglyphs 16
command=/usr/bin/Xgl -fullscreen -ac -accel xv -accel glx:pbuffer
flexible=true


Does Xgl need a special conf file or some other args ?
Do I really need the "mouse" & "keyboard" modules (I suppose that means
some more debs to install) ?

Thanks,
