Title
I suppose you have installed the python-gtkglext1 package ?
Could you try the 2 following statements in the Python console:
>>> import gtk.gtkgl
>>> import gtk.gdkgl
Do you get an error message for any of them ?

Unable to enable 3D mode
You are unable to play in 3D mode due to the following problems:
No Python GTKGLExt support
Please contact your system administrator to resolve these problems,
until then you will be able to play chess in 2D mode.

Which error do you get then ?
I thought you had also the OpenGL error popup.

I am able to import OpenGL in python without error:
$ python
Python 2.6.4 (r264:75706, Dec 7 2009, 18:43:55)
[GCC 4.4.1] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import OpenGL.GL
>>>
But I still have no 3D chess.

Have Chess offer to install 3D pa
Ok nadamsieee, I came to this conclusion because I looked at files in
/usr/share/pyshared/glchess and find out that the error message for
OpenGL libs missing (the last one I had after installing the python-
gtkglext1 and python-opengl packages) was due to an import statement in
chessview.py
So I t
I already have a link to libGL.so:
$ sudo ls -l /usr/lib/libGL.so*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 2009-12-05 16:26 /usr/lib/libGL.so -> libGL.so.1
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 18 2010-03-24 09:04 /usr/lib/libGL.so.1 ->
libGL.so.185.18.36
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 792992 2009-10-26 06:16 /usr/lib/libGL.
The fix proposed in bug #211962 :
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pyopengl/+bug/211962
worked for me, after a fresh install of Karmic on an eeepc 1005PE platform, 3D
in glchess was at start unavailable.
The fix is to add a link to LibGL.so:
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libGL.so.1 /usr/lib/libG
IMO this is a usability problem. The user should not have to google or
read all documentation to avoid getting error messages from menu items
in the default applications.
The suggestions above about assisting the user in different ways to
install the required packages are good.
The other way arou
We could at least clearly show the packages, maybe redirect to help, or
give apt: links.
That dialog is just plain bad.

that's only a game and it's working without that, 3d is not working on
every video card and that would require extra CD use, that's really a
wishlist and not a medium bug for ubuntu

I am increasing this to Medium priority. Chess is installed by default
in Ubuntu and 3D acceleration / visual effects are now a standard
feature in the OS. We can't expect end-users to find this bug report, in
fact it's not even marked as affecting glchess.

A solution to this may involve adding new code to the upstream project
but will require a significant amount of Ubuntu specific code. I
recommend fixing this in Ubuntu and moving any common code upstream when
a patch is developed.
