darktile: Render error: Failed to create window: Failed to create window: VersionUnavailable: GLX: Failed to create context: GLXBadFBConfig

Just tried to run aminal-linux-amd64 from releases, and got:

1.543406135031648e+09 info aminal/main.go:28 Allocating pty... 1.5434061350458617e+09 info aminal/main.go:56 Creating terminal... 1.5434061356787918e+09 fatal aminal/main.go:64 Render error: Failed to create window: Failed to create window: VersionUnavailable: GLX: Failed to create context: GLXBadFBConfig main.main /go/src/github.com/liamg/aminal/main.go:64 runtime.main /usr/local/go/src/runtime/proc.go:201

On Fedora 29, xorg+radeon. Is something wrong with my system?

Thank you.

It looks like your driver doesn’t support OpenGL 4.1. I’ll add a config item to select a version of OpenGL to use, that should let you switch to 3.3 and hopefully get things working…
