Mouse clicks on Elementary OS go through the editor onto whatever is below.
: Start the editor like this:
$ GTK_CSD=0 ./Defold
When I try to create a new project, or open an existing one, the editor crashes.
: On certain distributions (like Ubuntu 18) there is an issue with the version of jogamp/jogl Defold uses vs. the version of Mesa on the system.
See the following reports for more information:
- https://github.com/defold/editor2-issues/issues/1905
- https://github.com/defold/editor2-issues/issues/1886
If this is your problem try the following workaround:
$ export MESA_GL_VERSION_OVERRIDE=3.1
$ ./Defold
I can't create a new branch for my project on Linux.
: Make sure that you have libssl 0.9.8 installed on your machine. Some distributions come with a later version, but Defold needs version 0.9.8.
When I try to run my game on Linux, the engine doesn't start.
: Check the console output in the editor. If you get the following message:
dmengine: error while loading shared libraries: libopenal.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
then you need to install libopenal1. The package name varies between distributions, and in some cases you might have to install the openal and openal-dev or openal-devel packages.
