Gazebo crash, core dumped, likely graphics card driver incompatibility [closed]

edit

Hi all,

I have installed Gazebo v1.5 following all instructions. I am running Ubuntu 64-bit 12.04. My question is identical to the question asked by @treanorj here .

The reason that I am posting this as a new question is that

1. The original question is different and the question referred to is asked in the comment section.
2. I have some follow-up problems not addressed there

When I run 'gdb gzserver' and 'gdb gzclient' in different terminals, I get a segmentation fault in the gzclient terminal. Upon bt, the output is :
