You've found the two uninteresting lines from the whole ufoconsole.log. ;) Attach the whole file please (as attachment).

hm.... tested again.
in the folder /home/username/.ufoai/2.4/base
are three files: history, stats.log and ufoconsole.log. the first two are empty. the third has just two lines. see last post.

EDIT:  how can i test if ufoai is installed correct? i just find empty folders.

could you start it from commandline? The output contains valuable information (about the same ufoconsole.log should and a bit more)

SDL SetVideoMode failed: Couldn't find matching GLX visual
Failed to set video mode 1024x768 fullscreen.
I: set multisample buffers to 0
I: set swap control to 0
SDL SetVideoMode failed: Couldn't find matching GLX visual
Video subsystem failed to initialize

Here ^

Try this:
Code: [Select]
ufo +set vid_fullscreen 0 +set vid_width 1024 +set vid_height 768

It will start UFO:AI in a 1024x768 windowed mode, you can then try to find a suitable videomode.

ah, thx. after some testing a forumcommand "sudo apt-get install libgl1-mesa-swrast" helped. well. at least ufoai starts. but the maus is jerking extrem. i guess the driver is still not installed correct or the best for my card. i will see.

EDIT: ok. reactivated nvidia driver and now everything is working. mesa was a bad choice as i learned but somehow the reinstallation helped also the nvidia driver. no clue, but working :D
