OpenGLgadget not working on Ubuntu Linux 12.04

[langinagel]

Howdy,

I tried to compile OpenGlgadget.pb and ended up with no success over the IDE.
So I went to the shell:

:~/PRG/purebasic/examples/sources$ pbcompiler OpenGLGadget.pb -d

******************************************
PureBasic 5.30 (Linux - x86)

- Feel the ..PuRe.. Power -

:~/PRG/purebasic/examples/sources$ The program 'purebasic.out' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation)'.
(Details: serial 598 error_code 1 request_code 153 minor_code 19)
(Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)

So far so bad. Ok, option --sync:

:~/PRG/purebasic/examples/sources$ ./purebasic.out --sync

How do I get a hint to get the program running?
Is something wrong with the configuration?

PB 5.30 x86 (just downloaded) on Ubuntu 12.04, checkinstall says OK.

Done.

After trying to get new graphics driver I ended up with a system that could not start X.
Then: re-installation of Ubuntu and reconfiguration.

The dumb part: no bug in purebasic, everything works fine now with OpenGL.
The nice part: really everything works fine again...sound, 3D,...

Lessons Learned:
Reinstallation pays out from time to time.
And the nice part is in difference to Windows that you don't have to flip all the driver CDs.
