Obviously you don’t have the GLX extension loaded for your X-Server…

Allow me to elaborate on Legion’s answer… usually, to use panda properly, you have to install your graphics drivers. Under linux, that can be a heck of a procedure. But do a google search for “linux install radeon drivers” or “linux install geforce drivers.”
