I have Minecraft 1.15.2 java edition

When I press The Play Button, Then a Window Opens saying:

GLFW error 65543: GLX: Failed to create context: GLXBadFBConfig

Please make sure you have up-to-date drivers (see aka.ms/mcdriver for instructions).

I Dont Know Why That But I Now You can Help Me And Thank You

  • I have equivalent problem with other application, not solved yet but I think I am in the path. Run this command glxinfo |grep "OpenGL version" just to know what you have. Install/upgrade from this ppa: https://launchpad.net/~paulo-miguel-dias/+archive/ubuntu/mesa everything related to opengl mesa. But here it still says OpenGL version 2.1, this probably means that now I need to try to upgrade my graphics drivers, as the message says in the error you got. – VeganEye May 29 '20 at 22:05
  • I think there is no hope for me. The newest intel graphics drivers xserver-xorg-video-intel will still fail with that error. Apparently, a notebook is not a good purchase as we can't upgrade the graphics hardware after some years as we can easily do with a desktop machine :(. If yours is a notebook too, then you may be out of luck too... – VeganEye May 29 '20 at 23:21

On terminal, run :-

export MESA_GL_VERSION_OVERRIDE=4.5

...and then run Minecraft. Should solve it.

    Please, could you [edit] your answer adding some details? Is it a command to run in the terminal (and how many times? Everytime you want to lauch the game or only one time)? Or is it a line to put in a dot file? What does this command do? – Lorenz Keel Oct 23 '20 at 08:47
