When there is a controller element (group, overlay, girder) in the lattice then madqt will fail reading in the lattice since these elements do not have defined a length. The error message I get is:
libGL error: No matching fbConfigs or visuals found
libGL error: failed to load driver: swrast
Traceback (most recent call last):
