playonlinux is unable to find 32bits / 64bits OpenGL library

12.04 games opengl playonlinux

This may sound strange, but here is how I got it working! This is not a real answer

I unistalled ubuntu ( I was on 12.04 ) and I installed the new Ubuntu 12.10 ... I then installed wine first and then playonlinux , both from the ubuntu software center. It worked like a charm :)

Thanks for all your help in answering this, but I still havent figured out whats wrong with that as its working now and I am not in a mood to crash my playonlinux to solve it!

im trying to output my details from my object class in a method and i remember using a method similar to this
```
 String output;
     output = "Name: " + this.Name;
     output = "Address: " + this.Address;
     output = "Balance: " + this.balance;
     output = "Minutes used" + this.minutes;
     output = "Texts Sent: " + this.texts;
     output = "Cost per Minute: " + this.unitMinuteCost;
     output = "Cost per Text: " + this.unitTextCost;


     return output;
```
i think we were using some kind of string-builder how do i output all these when i return output

  Can you please provide your hardware specs and which video driver you are using.

  @Anthony as I said I am new to ubuntu. If you tell me how to find a dump for you I will put that up. Besides that. Mine is a lenova ideapad U410 i7 3rd gen laptop. laptopmag.com/review/laptops/lenovo-ideapad-u410.aspx

  Please launch playonlinux from the command line and report the output in your question. Open a terminal and type "playonlinux". I suspect there is a driver issue. Whether you should be using the nvidia hardware or the intel HD4000 we will see.

  Most IDEs can generate this method for you.

pastebin.com/5Ejy4vzb here is the log file. But still the error dialog boxes come. I followed your steps to add the text. I added it to the end of the file.

I'm going to suggest that you install the nvidia driver. The nvidia hardware you have is slightly better than the intel hd4000 anyway. Follow this guide here help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia You can also install it through synaptic package manager. Once the install is complete, you should be all set up. Let me know once you are finished and I will help you with additional configurations as needed.

Hi nvidea is already installed and when I open it from dash board it says nvidea is not being used and in-order to use it just enter nvidea-xconfig as root. I did that. But my resolution got weird. It wouldnt go beyond 640x480. And I tried MANY solutions on the internet and put in the exact resolution of my monitor. I had to reinstall ubuntu

The "need" to reinstall nvidia aside, how was it installed in the first place? From Additional Drivers, or from nvidia directly? Second, although using nvidia-xconfig can be useful, it is my experience that it is not always 100%.

I didnot install it explicitly from any-source. My best guess is that: I am connected to the internet while installing ubuntu, and I did check the options to update-ubuntu and install required 3rd party drivers (in the installer first screen)
Anthony over 11 years

so you have reinstalled ubuntu? And the nvidia driver is currently installed?

yes, but still the error persists when I open playonlinux

I have attached screenshots of the dialog box for nvidea driver

Nope, it actually crashed my system to a 640x480 screen and I had to restore the system

Ouch, a StringBuilder appending the results of more StringBuilders.

@PeterLawrey Yep, my bad, copy-n-paste

+1 not pretty, but faster. BTW the first example would be faster/shorter if you replaced ;\n output += with + but I see you are trying to match the question.
MadProgrammer over 10 years

@PeterLawrey It would my preferred approach as well

No need to reinstall Ubuntu or playonlinux in whatever order. The trick is to just install wine, because it depends on libgl1-mesa-glx | libgl1 for both amd64 and i386 architectures. That works for in-kernel-tree graphics drivers as well as proprietary ones.

Could some please explain the reason for downvote? In what way does this not answer the ops question?
