Greg,<br><br>Thank you for the reply. I removed all the previous chimera installations and ~/.chimera directory. Downloaded the latest 1.4 build and then installated. Now when i start the chimera, i get the following error. I am not sure if this is graphic card problem but i am attaching the glxinfo output with the mail. <br>

<br>
I installed chimera in fedora10, installation was fine but starting chimera<br>
throws me the following error. Trying chimera version 1.3<br>

The Pbuffer code doesn't appear in chimera until after 1.3 in the 1.4 alpha releases (the daily builds). So it looks like you started up a chimera daily build with the --debug-opengl option, saved a configuration, and then tried the 1.3 release. The solution is to start the daily build with the --debug-opengl option, then revert to Factory Defaults and Save, so the 1.3 version sees the default setup (same as removing your ~/.chimera/gfxinfo.sav file).<br>
