Minecraft Crash

[Sennah]

This is my first Lunix OS; one of the first things I tried to do was install minecraft.
When I try to launch minecraft, I get the attached error.

If there's more info that I didn't provide, let me know.

Welcome to the forums!

What's your graphics card?

Have you installed any drivers for it?

[Sennah]

Aha.

I didn't think about that.

I'll give it a shot and see if it works.

[Sennah]

updated drivers, re-installed java, did a rain dance, still doesn't work.

this is the error I'm getting in the terminal, when I run this command:

-Xmx1024M -Xms512M -cp minecraft.jar net.minecraft.LauncherFrame

Ok, looks like the graphics issues have been solved. Now it appears you're missing lwjgl. You can download lwjgl from their site here.

I'd recommend getting the stable version. Unzip it in your .minecraft/bin/ directory.
