[Rock-dev] Vizkit is not compiling on parallels 6.0 / Ubuntu

The opengl driver for ubuntu provided with parallels 6.0 does not resolve the functions
glXCreateGLXPbufferSGIX and glXDestroyGLXPbufferSGIX.

The result will be an undefined reference during linking libosgViewer.so. Installing nvidia-common-dev will solve the problem but will break the opengl support. Reinstalling the Parallels tools will bring back the opengl support but also removes the lib which resolves glXCreateGLXPbufferSGIX and glXDestroyGLXPbufferSGIX.

Any suggestions other than using linux has host ;-). 
I have the feeling it was a bad decision to put the ruby stuff in vizkit as well.
