Unity linux standalone won't run
I built a unity linux standalone and set the permissions to run the file as an application. On vmware linux ubuntu 15.10 it opens fine, on an aws vm with desktop xfce installed it does nothing when I double click on it.
I tried running it from the command line and I get a few lines about mono paths mono config path= ...Mono/etc.. and then Abort core dump. There is no output.log in the data folder either.
Is there some reason it runs on one and not the other?

Might be something with the new OpenGL backend. Does it run with -force-opengl? The new OpenGL backend needs at least OpenGL 3.2 driver support. If you amazon box doesn't have that then use -force-opengl (which uses the old backend) for the time being.
Thanks for the suggestion. I think you're right it must have something to do with the different configurations and the video card would be a good starting point. I tried this from the ubuntu ter$$anonymous$$al on aws.
$ /home/myfolders/myproject.x86_64 -force-opengl
I get the same error. Aborted (Core Dumped) The ter$$anonymous$$al error really doesn't give me any information. Is there another place to look for more specific errors? Normally I'd look in the output_log file in the data folder but it doesn't ever get that far.
I also tried a simple project just a sphere nothing else. In case it was something wrong with my project. It gives the same error with or without force-opengl.
