jre error when using P2D on linux mint Qiana

ctcel

Hello,

I am new to Processing and I would like to make it work on my current OS which is Linux Mint Qiana (based on Ubuntu Trusty 14.04). I have seen that Ubuntu 14.04 is tested in its 32bits version and hoped it could work also with a 64bit version. I could install the Processing 3.3.6 64bits version and launch it correctly but I cannot run any sketch using "P2D" option, like size(640,480,P2D); I get the following error message which I don't really understand:

**A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment:

SIGSEGV (0xb) at pc=0x00007f2e5bd7bbbc, pid=14023, tid=0x00007f2e5bb77700

JRE version: Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (8.0_144-b01) (build 1.8.0_144-b01) Java VM: Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (25.144-b01 mixed mode linux-amd64 compressed oops) Problematic frame: C [libnvidia-glsi.so.340.32+0x3bbc]**

Does it mean there is a compatibility issue with my graphic card (Nvidia Quadro K200M)? Can anyone help me solving that?

Thanks for reading

This is the challenge of working with linux and trying to figure out these sort of incompatibility issues. I suggest you explore google search with the keywords java opengl ubuntu mint nvidia error and see if you get any leads.

Do you get a hs_err_****.log file? Check for a stack trace that tells you what the last Java call was / what's actually crashing.

Post the issue on the Processing issue tracker, and possibly also try posting on the JOGL forum if you get no joy here - http://forum.jogamp.org/

Thank you for your answer, I just opened an issue on github with the extract from the hs_err log file.
