Hi Grace - I feel like this is coming up often with Power. 

Jason Furmanek's last comment on it was:
"Because the 375 driver is the first driver to support OpenGL and X on Power. (older drivers are for compute/cuda only).

The 375 driver has some various issues, though. A new driver is set to drop at the end of this month."
