Can you run other 32 bit apps that use OpenGL?
I believe so. I have now basically hosed my glx trying to uninstall and
reinstall it.I'll get back to you once I have that fixed.

Your Graphics card (Radeon HD 4550) is not supported by ubuntu 12.10. Normal fglrx does not work with cards older than HD5000. You will need the fglrx legacy driver.
Ok, I'll try that one - thanks!
