search for: eax1650pro

Hi all, I just installed Sketchup on my pc, and got the message above. I am not sure how to go on from here, so I thought, let's ask the experts. My video card is: Asus EAX1650Pro gamer edition. I run: Ubuntu 6.04.01 desktop amd 64. I am desperate, because I am working on a project, and can't continue. Thanks in advance, Bram

[Replying to a post from September...] The "cannot initialize opengl" is bug http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14045 The workaround is to set a registry key to tell sketchup your graphics card is ok. See http://wiki.winehq.org/GoogleSketchup for more tips. Caveat: your Asus EAX1650Pro graphics card is ATI-based, and I haven't heard any success stories yet running Sketchup on ATI graphics cards. Also, your OS (Ubuntu 6.06) is awful old, and probably has very outdated opengl drivers. You may have better luck with Ubuntu 8.10. Let us know how it goes!
