Trouble starting on Fedora 31

[a12l]

As requested by @akgrant43 in #940, here comes the output from running the command $ glxinfo | grep -i opengl and the script gt_check_libs.sh.

Note that I ran the commands as instructed in the pdf central-HowtorunGtoolkitonFedora-140420-0658.pdf. But with the change that I only gave the current user permission to execute the library files by running the command chmod u+x .... Don't want to get in the bad habit by giving out to many permissions.

The section Ensure that X11 is being used should probably be placed at the bottom of the document.

After following instructions I'm able to start GToolkit without any problems.

$ glxinfo | grep -i opengl:

Hi @inquisitiv3 ,

Thanks for the feedback and log file. This all looks OK. Can you briefly let me know what are the latest symptoms you are seeing when trying to run on Fedora 31?

We've made some progress on running Gtoolkit under Wayland last night and this morning, so I'm just starting to work on updating the document.

Thanks again,
Alistair

Great work @akgrant43!

Everything seems to run fine for me. I don't have a reference point, so I can't say if something works as intended or not. At least it isn't throwing out error messages left and right. :)

env WINIT_UNIX_BACKEND=x11 ./gtoolkit GToolkit-64-20200415161045-bb4d6c9.image --interactive [I'm using Fish shell]

[Glutin] Profile #0 worked

[akgrant43]

That's great to hear!

If you feel like it, v0.7.892 and later should work in Wayland (no need for the WINIT_UNIX_BACKEND env var.).

Thanks for your feedback and patience!
