Andoid AVD Can't start WARNING: Application calling GLX 1.3 function "glXCreatePbuffer"

Can you give the output of:

sudo lshw -C display; lsb_release -a; uname -a

Thanks

I run into same issue. my output of sudo lshw -C display; lsb_release -a; uname -a

quite annoying, since now I can't remote access (tried X-fwd, VNC, NoMachine) development machine.

Thanks!

Is this likely an issue with my graphics controller? My older computer with kubuntu 10.x has an nvidia video card. Should I try swapping the older video card into the new computer?

Some more observation on starting avd:
X-fwd with Cygwin from WinXP works.
X-Fwd from RedHat does not work.
VNC from WinXP does not work.
I saw someone with NVidia card having same problem.
I guess it may be related to version of Android tools as they were recently updated few times, shadowed by Ubuntu update.

WinXP -> NX -> Kubuntu
although
$emulator @name fails,
$emulator-arm @name does not!

as for my comment #7: the error message is called by emulator GPU acceleration. if invoked by "emulator", emulator support libraries libOpenglRender.so (libEGL_translator.so, libGLES_CM_translator.so, libGLES_V2_translator.so, libOpenglRender.so) from Android/sdk/r18/tools/lib/ are found and later we get error message.
However "emulator-arm" cannot find libOpenglRender.so etc (looking in /usr/lib*/_many_possible_dirs_/), and after giving a short warning:

emulator: Initializing hardware OpenGLES emulation support
emulator: ERROR: Could not load OpenGLES emulation library: libOpenglRender.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
emulator: WARNING: Could not initialize OpenglES emulation, using software renderer.

starts using software renderer.

It seems to me this issue is not related to K/Ubuntu at all, but recent android tools/emulator.

Possible reason is that the emulator couldn't find the file libOpenglRender.so in some path variables where android-sdk is looking for.

I tried this in Ubuntu 11.10:
- Navigate to android-sdk/tools/lib
- start emulator with [code] ../emulator -avd <your_avd> -gpu on [/code]

Notice: GPU Acceleration work only on AVD's API Level 15 (Android 4.0.3) or higher.
See http://developer.android.com/tools/devices/emulator.html#accel-graphics

As with #7 above emulator-arm works with the following error message (same as #8 above).

~/android-sdks/tools/lib$ ../emulator-arm -avd phone-api-15 -gpu on
emulator: ERROR: Could not load OpenGLES emulation library: libOpenglRender.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
emulator: WARNING: Could not initialize OpenglES emulation, using software renderer.

On the other hand #9 fails as before but with additional information:

../emulator -avd phone-api-15 -gpu on
libGL error: failed to load driver: swrast
libGL error: Try again with LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose for more details.

Is there an issue using emulator-arm vs emulator?
