[Chimera-users] Crash under Ubuntu Linux 10.4

[Greg Couch]

Hi Mario,

The first thing I'd recommend is to update your graphics driver.  If you 
have NVidia or an ATI graphics driver, use Ubuntu's Hardware Drivers 
tool to install the proprietary drivers.  The open-source drivers are 
improving with every Ubuntu release, but they're not as good yet 
(though, you might not have a choice if you have an older graphics card 
or Intel graphics).  I recommend switching to ATI or NVidia graphics if 
you have the option (the newer, the better, anything introduced in the 
last 5 years old should be fine).  If that doesn't work, use chimera's 
Report a Bug dialog to submit a bug -- that way I'll get some important 
details about your system and should be able to make a more specific 
recommendation or possibly reproduce the bug locally.

     Good luck,

     Greg
