Linux lubuntu help

[miniswrider]

I have looked on google, the forums, and everywhere that I could think of, but I could not find a solution. Now I turn to the active forum community directly for help.
1.I type ./pain* in directory
2.it starts, gives me this:

3. opens, then closes window
4. does nothing and stays on console
5. I have no freaking idea what to do so I look online and don't find anything
6. I register as miniswrider and start a thread in the help section
7. I wait for a response.

Hmm. I'm not familiar with that assert.   "swrast" makes it sound like it's an issue with software rasterization.  If you're using software rasterizing for OpenGL, it's going to be super slow.  What video card do you have? Have you installed drivers for it? Can you run other 3D hardware accelerated games?

[miniswrider]

I opened the CLI and typed in: lspci
the abridged CLI output is as follows:

[miniswrider]

i have not been able to run any other games in ubuntu, but have been able to in debian(which works fine on this computer), wich tells me the hardware is fine.

[jitspoe]

It sounds like it's a video driver issue. You posted information on your sound card. Do you know what video card you have?

[miniswrider]

sorry, here is the video card info:


00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82845G/GL[Brookdale-G]/GE C

EDIT:I would post glxinfo but there is no spoiler...

[miniswrider]

I am going to try to compile the 3d mesa driver from here:
http://intellinuxgraphics.org/download.html

[jitspoe]

You shouldn't have to compile the drivers. If you have something like an nvidia card, you probably have to install proprietary drivers that are not open sourced.

[miniswrider]

even though the mesa drivers are there you still recommend proprietary intel drivers?

[jitspoe]

Oh, I'm not sure with intel. What I was saying is that you shouldn't have to actually compile the drivers. They should be available in a package you can just install with apt-get, or whatever you're using to install packages. I think Intel driver support is pretty crappy on Linux, so good luck.

[miniswrider]

Thank you for the help, I will try to find a package now.

I think Intel driver support is pretty crappy on Linux, so good luck.

They're getting better thanks to Valve though.  From Valve's linux blog:

We’ve been working with NVIDIA, AMD, and Intel to improve graphic driver performance on Linux. They have all been great to work with and have been very committed to having engineers on-site working with our engineers, carefully analyzing the data we see. We have had very rapid turnaround on any bugs we find and it has been invaluable to have people who understand the game, the renderer, the driver, and the hardware working alongside us when attacking these performance issues.

miniswrider, I'd just start trying a bunch, lol.  Start with libgl1-mesa-glx and if that doesn't work libegl1-mesa-drivers.  If that still doesn't work, you could always try compiling the driver from source.  Intel provides downloads for the source over here: http://intellinuxgraphics.org/2012Q4.html

[jitspoe]

I want to say when I installed ubuntu on my laptop that had an intel video card, it had hardware support by default, or there was some icon that looked like a card on the upper right of the screen that I could click on and install proprietary drivers.  That might have been for the nvidia computer, though.

I kind of ran into this problem while trying to compile and I am stuck(sorry its long):

I want to say when I installed ubuntu on my laptop that had an intel video card, it had hardware support by default, or there was some icon that looked like a card on the upper right of the screen that I could click on and install proprietary drivers.  That might have been for the nvidia computer, though.

I experienced a problem where I wouldn't get the popup, I explained how I solved it in the "This is why I hate steam..." thread.

I realized what the problem was.

Instead of using the older version of Ubuntu with LTS (12.04.1), I was using the latest version (12.10).

When I finished installing Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS, It told me that graphics card drivers were available. There were about 4 options.

To use steam, you have to install the latest experimental version (310) of the graphics driver if you're using an Nvidia graphics card.

TF2 is working fine now.

Years ago I ran dp2 in ubuntu (hardy herron) on a macbook.  This probably has nothing to do with your error but one weird thing i noticed is that if I made a link to the program it wouldn't run.  I had to go to where it was installed and select the program from there.
