glxspheres not found. How to install? [closed]
By John Peck •
I installed kubuntu 13.10 beta 1 yesterday. Today, I installed bumblebee and I was tried to check my fps on video card. When I ran glxspheres an error command not found appeared. How can I install glxspheres?
I tried sudo apt-get install virtualgl but the package was not found.

- Download VirtualGL (.deb) from:
Navigate to the folder containing the deb package and install it with:
sudo dpkg -i VirtualGL_*.debRun glxspheres:
cd /opt/VirtualGL/bin/./glxspheresOR
/opt/VirtualGL/bin/glxspheres
In 13.04 and older it is provided by mesa-utils package:
$ sudo apt-get install mesa-utilsAlso in older releases virtualgl is not in the default repositories. If this is still the case you can use Bumblebee PPA to get it.
