Troxel doesn't load on Linux #30

Closed jokerr77 closed 9 years ago

jokerr77 commented 9 years ago

I'm currently running the Lubuntu 15.04 distro after switching from Windows XP, and everytime I open Troxel, it just shows the gray editor with buttons, but I can't click Edit or see what people have made. When trying to open other menus, they just open then close automatically. Troxel used to work on XP, so i assume it has to do with Linux. I'm currently using Google Chrome Version 44.0.2403.107, but it doesn't load on Firefox either.

Here's my OS info. -Version- Kernel : Linux 3.19.0-23-generic (i686) Compiled : #24-Ubuntu SMP Tue Jul 7 18:52:29 UTC 2015 C Library : Unknown Default C Compiler : Unknown Distribution : Ubuntu 15.04 -Current Session- Computer Name : NAME-MM061 User Name : NAME (FULL NAME) Home Directory : /home/NAME Desktop Environment : LXDE (Lubuntu) -Misc- Uptime : 2 hours, 25 minutes Load Average : 0.74, 0.81, 0.77

I hope to see linux support soon, thanks :D

Does you current setup support WebGL and if so are other WebGL examples working for you? Could you please post the error message from the JavaScript console when opening Troxel.

I guess that you current setup doesn't support WebGL. You can check it out in Google Chrome by going to chrome://gpu/ . If WebGL is marked as unavailable try to update you graphic drivers. If it's still unavailable after that, try to activate the hardware acceleration on unsupported system in Chrome following this guide and hope you don't run into issues with it.

Hey it worked! I hardware accelerated and WebGL is supported and Troxel works :) Sorry for the issue, still new to Linux so I wasn't sure if I updated/set things properly.

no problem, glad to hear it is working for you now
