Fatal Error : Failed to initialize unity graphics

Hi,
I am new to ubuntu.
I just installed ubuntu and I wanted to install unity.
Downloaded the unity installer and Installed it.
But when i try to make a new project I get the following message box :

Fatal Error
Failed to initialize unity graphics

Please Help,
Thanks.

 

I have the exact same issue, have you been able to fix this?

 

Have you installed appropriate drivers for your graphic card?

 

It's a VPS, I would think it's already done. Any chance I could check what Unity is looking for?
Unity starts fine, this happens after I select the project.

 

Who would need graphic drivers on SERVER?

Of course, launcher don't need 3D acceleration.

 

Well if I understand your rhetorics properly, I do.
Anyway, I have windows setup on the same server and Unity works there fine.

 

This probably means that your environment doesn't have sufficient 3d driver support to run Unity.
If you post an editor log from one of these sessions (~/.config/unity3d/Editor.log or add -logfile /my/custom/log/path to the command line), we can verify.

This is what I get in the logs.

 

Did you ever get this to work?

 

HACKY SOLUTION:
I have had this same issue - I got round it by using cinnamon's software rendering mode.
If you're using any ubuntu flavour distro you can get it by installing cinnamon desktop. There will be a better way to switch to fallback rendering but I don't know how off hand.

REASON WHY IT'S HAPPENING:
Your openGL version is older than version 3.3 required by Unity on linux. There were some pretty big updates to opengl around that version that made it considerably more fun to code with.
Windows is better at falling back to software rendering opengl for versions not supported in hardware, linux less so .
On startup Unity tries to fall back to software rendering mode (swrast == software rasterizer), but for whatever reason can't find the device. If you run your whole desktop using software rendering then unity gets what it's looking for and starts up.

REAL SOLUTION:
Throw some money at a gfx card that supports opengl 3.3 and up

 

Thanks Bro!

 

im getting the same problem, but i cant run a VM or a different desktop (cinamon) my computer is nearly 10 years old, could that be my problem? any alternative solutions?

 

Im making a pixel art game with a 2070rtx is that not enough for unity??
