Same bug

Oops.
The same problems, cannot open collections, atlases as well as build, debug and run my very simple newborn game.
So strongly don’t want to downgrade to windows and unity…

#25

I have Defold running on Ubuntu 20.04. I have to start from shell like so(otherwise it does not open collections, go etc)

cd /folder/containg/defold
export MESA_GL_VERSION_OVERRIDE=2.1
./Defold

To avoid retyping the same commands, create a file(you can called it start-defold.sh or something) and paste the following content to it. Right click and change its permission to be executable or use chmod.

#!/bin/sh
sh -c “cd $HOME/defold/folder; export MESA_GL_VERSION_OVERRIDE=2.1; ./Defold;”

Now you can double click and run it.

Interesting! Other users seem to have problems on Ubuntu 20: https://github.com/defold/defold/issues/5342

Did you have to do anything else?

I install libalut-dev. I then run the script above to start Defold.

I am using Ubuntu 20.04 LTS with kubuntu-desktop. It does not run on Ubuntu 20.10 though.

alas, it does not help
my log btw:

I can confirm that Defold works well on Ubuntu 20.04
Just have upgraded to 20.10 and got the problem.

Temporary workaround can be found here:
