Could not initialize SDL! No available video device

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Im using and AMD Athlon II dual core P340 (2.2 Ghz with 3gb RAM) 
After trying to start the game, nothing comes up, when running in the terminal 
I saw the following (copied the parts that stood out as odd):

ERROR: Error opening audio device, disabling sound.
ERROR: Sound initialization failed
...
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::runtime_error'
  what():  Could not initialize SDL! No available video device
Aborted (core dumped)

Is there a fix for this or is my computer just not able to handle the game?

I have to ask: Do you run it as root? Do you use Xorg or Wayland?

I'm curious what fails here.
