Hi,
I have just completed the installation of the Vision egg package on a system
running RedHat 8.0. Though it was not especially easy, all of the required
packages are now installed. However, none of the Vision egg demos will run. I
get an error message which says:
pygame.error: Couldn't find matching GLX visual
I'm not sure how to proceed since pygame installed successfully. Also, I have
run demos (not pygame or Vision egg) which require GLX.
Any suggestions?
From the FAQ:
I am unable to open a graphics window. I get the following exception: "pygame.error: Couldn't find matching GLX visual"
An attempt was made to open a graphics window, but the requested mode was not found. Try setting the total bit depth to 0 and each RGBA component to 0 to allow automatic matching. Start with a small window (e.g. 640x480) and do not try fullscreen initially.
Hope this helps. If it doesn't, please let us know.
Cheers!
Andrew
