Hello!

I downloaded the Foldit client for Ubuntu 14.04 amd64. However, the client does not respond when I try to run it from the folder. Can you please fix this.

Foldit for Linux does not open when I try to run it on Ubuntu 12.04 either.

Does not open/run for me either. No error message.

My machine info:
kernel: Linux 4.4.0-64-generic (x86_64)
distribution: Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS
Kernel: Linux 4.4.0-64-generic (x86_64)
Compiled: #85-Ubuntu SMP Mon Feb 20 11:50:30 UTC 2017
C Library: Unknown
Default C Compiler: Unknown
Distribution: Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS
Desktop Environment: LXDE (Lubuntu)

I have not used linux for a long time, so I might be overlooking something obvious.

Solved by installing freeglut3, as suggested in another post.

Is anything output to the log.txt or the console?

Are you running an amd64 processor as well, kea?
