    Hello,

    With a program using Quick3D and View3D, on a Debian 10 computer. I see the following error messages:
    qt.glx: qglx_findConfig: Failed to finding matching FBConfig for ...
    Could not initialize GLX

    I would like to know if this problem may come from the old video card (GeForce210 ; value 40 euros in year 2012). If yes, then i will straight buy a more recent video card.

    Or if the problem comes from the OS which is missing some libraries.

    Remark: the same program works well with another Debian 10 computer which has a more recent video card.

      First: I don't know :-) Second: you can try mass-installing all dependencies: sudo apt build-dep qt5-qmake and trying to run your app again, maybe it will work. I don't think the GFX card is to blame, even back in 2012 GPUs and their drivers supported OpenGL sufficiently well for Quick3D.

        I haven't seen this issue before, but I don't think it's a problem with your video card. Other people have faced similar problems and resolved them by making software changes, for example:
