I did a patch to xtscal to print out all X11 Extensions
if the XInitExtension fails, and there is no XCALIBRATE
extension loaded.


The at91 confs have:
PREFERRED_PROVIDER_xserver = "xserver-kdrive"
This should be:
PREFERRED_PROVIDER_xserver = "xserver-kdrive-common"

Instead of kdrive, I am using the xorg server, and I saw
a comment that libXcalibrate does not work on xorg.

I will try with xerver-krive-common and see how it goes...
