I recently bought this computer from a used equipment auction. I installed Xubuntu [Ubuntu 14.04 LTS (32 bit)] and decided to try if I can play CounterStrike:Source using Steam here. After installation, I got this message:

"Could not find required OpenGL entry point 'glGetError'! Either your video card is unsupported, or your OpenGL driver needs to be updated."

I tried a few remedies advised on-line, like

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/x-updates
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

and

sudo apt-get install xorg-x11-drv-catalyst-devel.i686 xorg-x11-drv-catalyst-libs.i686

but got no results.

Are your video-drivers up-to-date?

Open an Terminal (CTRL+ALT+T) and chek if you can update them with the package xserver-xorg-video-all.

sudo apt-get install linux-headers-generic xserver-xorg-video-all libgl1-mesa-glx libgl1-mesa-dri xserver-xorg-core

This must resolve the problem.

  • Can you run glxinfo | grep "OpenGL version string"? – saiarcot895 Jun 01 '14 at 15:40
