This confirms that the bug with the graphics driver. Start the
"Software & Updates" tool in "System Settings", then switch to
the "Additional Drivers" tab, and wait, and wait, and wait until it
gives you a bunch of choices. Then choose "Using Video driver for
the AMD graphics accelerators from fglrx (proprietary)", and click
the "Apply Changes" button. And then reboot your computer and try
Chimera again.<br>
<br>
For a simple test, install the mesa-utils package and run the
glxgears program instead of Chimera.<br>

installed Chimera on an old all-in-one iMac with AMD

fine under Ubuntu 12.04, but stubbornly stopped working
after upgrading the OS. Eventually I gave up and went
back to 12.04 with the "radeon" driver. It works
smoothly at least for what I've needed so far.<br>

<div><span class="">Try running "chimera --debug" and
CHIMERA/bin/linuxdist and sending me the output
from both programs. That said, it's probably a
problem with the graphics driver. If you have AMD
or NVIDIA graphics, try installing the proprietary
graphics driver -- the proprietary drivers are
much faster than the open source ones. If you
have Intel graphics, then the best way to get a
better driver is to upgrade to a newer version of
Ubuntu. If you have AMD graphics and it still
doesn't work with the proprietary driver, then try
the Chimera daily build (can't remember if that
happened with Ubuntu 14.04, but it is a problem
with 15.04 -- the open source AMD driver works in
15.04 but is slower than the proprietary AMD
driver).<br>

<div>Dear Sir/Madame,<br>
<br>
</div>
I have recently installed Chimera on
my computer which has Ubuntu 14.04 as
OS. The followed the installation
instructions of this link:
<a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="https://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/data/downloads/1.6.2/linux.html"
target="_blank">
https://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/data/downloads/1.6.2/linux.html</a> <br>
</div>
I executed the
chimera-1.10.2-linux_x86_64.bin file,
added the symbolic link in <code>
/usr/local/bin/chimera</code>, and the
installation appeared to succeed.
However, then I tried to run the program
but the application was not able to
start. There was no error message. It
just runs a loading window for a second
but then it is closed automatically.<br>
</div>
What should I do to be able to install the
program properly?<br>
<br>
</div>
Thank you very much for your attention,<br>
<br>
</div>
Quim
