Okay, I've had some movement on this; I've looked up and followed the
official advice (wiki.x-plane.org) again, and I've got the installer to
run under bash, but get the message ""Whoah -- No matter how hard I
tried, I failed to get a GLX visual. Something's seriously wonky on your
machine."
I have OpenGL and OpenAL on my dual Kubuntu/Ubuntu 11.10 lappy.
Hmmmm.... :-(
Too late/early to think straight...
Thoughts, please?
Thanks,
Peter
