Hi,

What graphics card and driver do you have?

Gazebo/Ogre needs hardware acceleration, from my experience parallel's will not work.  Older ATI drivers also have incompatible OpenGL implementations.  Most NVIDIA cards seems to run fine.
Please see

for list of tested cards and drivers.

I am trying to use the cturtle binaries on ubuntu to experiment with gazebo's new features.  When I run `roslaunch gazebo_worlds empty_world.launch` I get this error:

In trying to debug this we have tried to run this on two different macbook pros running ubuntu lucid in parallels and on a laptop running lucid that has an ati x1300 moble all with the same result.

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks,
