I was trying to make the tutorials work on my ubuntu 14.04 LTS which is installed in my vmWare ( a Nvida GPU of course ). But it seams that the glfw window can't be created correctly in the tutirial 1 : opening a window. I have google-ed for a while. Just need some help.
You need drivers for your GPU. Just a VGA controller won't do.
Generally speaking it's a pain on virtualized systems, but you can get it to work. I never used vmWare, but on VirtualBox you need to install OS Additions, and the proprietary drivers.
If you can't get glxgears (or whatever) to run, the tutorials won't run either. Good luck !

window = glfwCreateWindow( 1024, 768, "Playground", NULL, NULL);

╰─➤ lspci |grep VGA
00:0f.0 VGA compatible controller: VMware SVGA II Adapter
would this be a problem to make it work?
