Troubleshooting
If you have trouble installing or running SketchUp on Wine, you might try using these registry settings files to correct the problem. To use one, just download it into your home directory, launch a terminal and type
wine regedit /s filename
where filename is the name of the registry file.
- "SketchUp was unable to initalize OpenGL": If you see this error, download File:Force sketchup hw accel.reg
- SketchUp crashes on start with no error message: Force off the "Welcome to SketchUp" dialog with File:Disable welcome.reg
- SketchUp crashes on or shortly after startup; either the main window is displayed, or you have already disabled the Welcome screen: Force off the "Snappy Instructor" dialog with File:Disable instructor.reg
