Title: Evolution mail in R8
Post by: n_spect_r on June 10, 2014, 08:04:34 AM: I'd like to run evolution mail and calendar. It installs fine but will not start. If I try to start from terminal I get this error;
Failed to connected to any renderer: XServer appears to lack required GLX support Google searching the error leads me back to several Debian references but no solution that I can understand. Most refer to Nvidia drivers but I have an Intel video card. I ran Evolution on this computer when using R5.

Post by: n_spect_r on June 10, 2014, 05:46:02 PM: 32 bit, LXDE. This seems to be a problem in Debian but I can't find a solution that I understand.

As a result of having started it, I met with a problem of n_spect_r.
This is not a problem peculiar to a PC of n_spect_r.
