    From Geri Atricks@1:123/256 to G00R00 on Tue Feb 23 17:19:18 2021
    Hey G00R00, I have no idea what's going on, but I can't get Netrunner
    Terminal to work on my laptop. I downloaded the latest version from the website, works great on my desktop, but when I try to run it on my laptop it crashes saying "Unable to initialize video". Both machines are running the
    same version of Ubuntu (20.04) and I've already made sure that the laptop is running the latest libsdl2. Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.

    SAME here... I'm new to Linux so I thought it was me... I installed Mint though.

    Are you running in a VMware/VirtualBox?

    Um, I got the same error. I had it in a VM and just this morning I installed Linux Mint on my laptop and got the same error.

    I initially thought it was me... because I'm new with Linux but then I say someone else having the same issue.

    Thanx
