Hi,

I've been trying to get back on RI without much success, because UT (Linux) crashes on startup every time! It then prints out this error message:

Quote:
Initializing OpenGLDrv...
binding /usr/lib/libGL.so.1
appError called:
Could not load OpenGL library


which is a lie as I know that that lib exists!

I'm running Debian Sid with the NVIDIA custom drivers. Anyone with Linux savvy know what's going on?

I wish I could help but I don't know anything about Linux. Maybe Schwantz will chime in here soon. Reinstalls are usually a great way to get it right again. Good luck!

Have you tried anything from here:

The best thing I found in this list was to add /usr/X11R6/lib to your /etc/ld.so.conf and do a 'ldconfig' after installing the nVidia drivers (all as root of course). Make sure you also have removed the references to DRI and other things in XF86config as per nVidia's instructions.

Thanks for all the help guys. I did a fresh install of Debian and she flies. Be on once I've got the bonus pack installed :)
