There a number of similar issues to this one, but I wasn't sure where to put this one since it's on Ubuntu and Julia was built from source:

That sounds like you have no gpu drivers installed or not not installed them correctly ;)
Make sure to install nvidia drivers & make sure that glxinfo | grep OpenGL spits out OpenGL > 3.3

I think the correct drivers are already installed:

~$ ubuntu-drivers devices

model    : G86 [Quadro NVS 290]
driver   : nvidia-340 - distro non-free recommended
driver   : xserver-xorg-video-nouveau - distro free builtin

~$ sudo apt-get install nvidia-340
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
nvidia-340 is already the newest version (340.108-0ubuntu2).
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 8 not upgraded.

and I can see that OpenGL is ≥ 3.3 (but not > 3.3):

glxinfo | grep "OpenGL version"
OpenGL version string: 3.3.0 NVIDIA 340.108

yet, I still run into the same problem:

(@v1.5) pkg> build GLMakie
   Building ModernGL → `~/.julia/packages/ModernGL/rVuW2/deps/build.log`
   Building FFTW ────→ `~/.julia/packages/FFTW/DMUbN/deps/build.log`
   Building GLMakie ─→ `~/.julia/packages/GLMakie/cLuEl/deps/build.log`
┌ Error: Error building `GLMakie`: 
│ libGL error: No matching fbConfigs or visuals found
│ libGL error: failed to load driver: swrast
│ init error of GLFW
...

So do I need the version of OpenGL to be higher than, but not equal to, 3.3.0?

Do you have any special setup in place? E.g. running this headless (without monitor) or something?

No, this was on a Ubuntu with Gnome (newest LTS with all the normal things). But I've switched it to Debian Buster (so not the latest) with just i3, to see if it was something Ubuntu related. The hardware this is on is a bit dated (2008) and nvidia-detect said I needed buster for the correct nvidia driver. I still have OpenGL 3.3 and the driver for the Nvidia card is 340.108. I've now tried to use the Julia binaries instead of building from source (in order to test the workaround mentioned in #198), and now the error is slightly different:

(@v1.5) pkg> build GLMakie
   Building ModernGL → `~/.julia/packages/ModernGL/rVuW2/deps/build.log`
   Building FFTW ────→ `~/.julia/packages/FFTW/DMUbN/deps/build.log`
   Building GLMakie ─→ `~/.julia/packages/GLMakie/cLuEl/deps/build.log`
┌ Error: Error building `GLMakie`: 
│ init error of GLFW
...

As reported elsewhere trying to build GLFW doesn't output anything at all. installing libglfw3 didn't help either.

So something must be up since this isn't working in either Ubuntu nor Debian...

I don't see the error :D
Try:

using GLFW; GLFW.Window()

For a simple test!

Gladly:

@yakir12, would you mind trying the following?

LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6 julia

It's been long enough for all of these problems to have resolved themselves by now... So I think we can close this because, currently, I can't even reproduce the errors I reported here.

Both setting and not setting LD_PRELOAD when running

using GLFW; GLFW.Window()

works (i.e. no errors and a new window is created).

Let me know if there is anything additional you want me to test. For reference:

Unfortunately, it's happening on my system. (That's why I found this issue).

So I think we can close this

Sure. I agree, since the root cause is JuliaLang/julia#34276, which is not fixed but closed at the time of writing.

Is this releated? Using the newest ubuntu release 22.04 I get

@hofmannmartin, use the workaround described in #198 (comment) on 22.04.

I think it is, @hofmannmartin. I am using the same distribution (ubuntu 22.04) and got the same error. The workaround
LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6 julia
works.
