Hi Miguel,

As Bruce said, the best thing to do is to make sure you have enabled "Hardware 
Drivers" for your  video card and make sure they are up-to-date.  However, if 
you do not have a video card with the appropriate level of OpenGL support for 
an application (e.g., if you are running in a VM), I have been able to run 
tkmedit using the mesa SW X11 implementation in Ubuntu 9.04.  You can install 
it with:

sudo apt-get install libgl1-mesa-swx11

Good luck!
