Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display
Hello.
When I try to run paraview it only flickers open for a moment and then disappears. Here is the message I get in the terminal. Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0". Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0". Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0". Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0". Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".

Aborted (core dumped) Does anyone know what I need to do. I am not a linux expert. I am running Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. If you need more info please let me know. Thank you. |
Fixed it.
Fixed it. How do I delete this post? I don't want it to waste people time in the future.

Perhaps you can share the solution with the rest of the forum? In that way, other people with similar problems can find the solution themself, without asking/posting the same question again. That is a much better solution than deleting the post.

Of course! My solution was to reformat my hard drive, and reinstall the latest and greatest versions of all software, Ubuntu 12.10 and openFOAM 2.2.0, and then download the current version of Paraview from the software center of Ubuntu.
If that helps people, then let the post stand, if not........ |
so how can I delete this worthless thread?

But in essence, the error was probably because the drivers for graphics card were not properly instaled. Best regards, Bruno |
