How do i fix this?
-
it looks like you dont have opengl installed on your system
-
How can i install opengl? ive searched the web, but havnt found anything for linux.
-
You need to download and install packages for your video card. You then have to enable or whatever your card to use the opengl.
In my case, I just searched my synaptics package manager and saw many opengl things I have installed. Some are libraries, some are card drivers. Search the ubuntu forums for "install opengl on ATI, nvidia, or Intel video card" or the like. Or ask on your live chat.
I use PCLinuxOS, so it is different.
I am as I type, awaiting a clacker to respawn, just discovered running Windows PS under WINE perfectly with no crashing.
-
I have been trying to install the ATI driver, but i keep getting a Segmentation Fault, and cant figure out whats wrong. When i accedentily downloaded the Windows installer, it didnt work for me.
-
You might want to try under WINE. Read the post I just put up it will be at the bottom since I just left there.. All is well for me now.

for the part wget winetricks, im just getting a '>' and nothing else is happening
-
there is a chance if you dont have opengl working using wine to run the windoze client will not work either, if you have questions about that wine thread please ask for help there.
-
nvm worked when downloaded manually :).
I think the problem is no ATI Graphics driver, im gonna see if i can get help on ubuntu forums.
-
PS in WINE will not work without the ATi Drivers installed in Linux I believe
-
I'm willing to try this windows in wine for PS effort on an ati box, if it will save someone years of effort.
Laptop people are stuck with their stapled on card.
Give me details of your system, especially a laptop. And, if you are running a box, remember it is easier to toss the lousy card and buy a new old one from ebay or craig's list, or recently godaddy. think of all the 400.00 cards in discarded boxes.
I am really anxious to see if PS on Winows in Wine will work on my old laptop. stay tuned.
Now next project: getting PS to work on a netbook.
