You don't say which platform this is on.  I'm going to assume it's on 
Microsoft Windows.  You can get the debug messages by using the Start 
menu and opening "UCSF Chimera 1.15 / Chimera - Debug".

That said, the typical cause of this problem is an outdated graphics 
driver.  Please update the system to the latest and greatest version.  
This is especially true right now if you have AMD Radeon graphics, but 
also applies if you have Intel or NVidia graphics.

     Regards,
