[Can't install SL viewer on Ubuntu desktop 11.04]

Thank you for your reply I think your right.

Ubuntu does not appear to have a package for the drivers I want at the moment.

There are some on Intels website but you have to recompile them and that sounds a bit difficult to me.

Fortunately my system is duel boot so I can get on to second Life via windows 7.

I shall wait until ubuntu produces a package for the drivers and install them then.

 

[Can't install SL viewer on Ubuntu desktop 11.04]

Hello,

I have a Dell Vostro 460

Intel Core i5 processor

2GB Memory

My video graphics are generated with Intel(R) HD Graphics family.

 

I am trying to install the second life viewer on my pc that has Ubuntu desktop 11.04

I  downloaded the secondlife tarball to my Download directory.

I have unzipped it 

According to the readme file I have to:

cd  SecondLife-i686-3.0.0.238864

./second life

What happens is the screen flashes as though it is trying to start but immediately crashes.

Can somebody advise me how to proceed please?
