I just swapped out my ATI Radeon HD 5450 for an nVidia Geforce GT 610, and Minecraft will actually give me a crash report now.
This is the most recent one:

--- END ERROR REPORT 7739470 ----------

The things that stood out to me were how it cannot identify that the card I am using supports OpenGL 4.2 and that it said there is an error with X server, which is the display manager.
I am using the tested NVidia proprietary drivers rather than the open source Noveau drivers. This is what I have done after some Googling:

[email protected]:~$ glxinfo | grep direct
X Error of failed request:  BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation)
  Major opcode of failed request:  153 (GLX)
  Minor opcode of failed request:  14 (X_GLXGetVisualConfigs)
  Serial number of failed request:  12
  Current serial number in output stream:  12

So, basically, I am split between this being an NVidia and an X server problem. Any thoughts on this? Or is it just Minecraft going screwy? I have already reinstalled Minecraft, so it can not be that it needs to apply changes to the config files.
