Friends,
I installed chimera in fedora10, installation was fine but starting chimera throws me the following error. Trying chimera version 1.3

KeyError: 'Pbuffer'
The Pbuffer code doesn't appear in chimera until after 1.3 in the 1.4 alpha releases (the daily builds). So it looks like you started up a chimera daily build with the --debug-opengl option, saved a configuration, and then tried the 1.3 release. The solution is to start the daily build with the --debug-opengl option, then revert to Factory Defaults and Save, so the 1.3 version sees the default setup (same as removing your ~/.chimera/gfxinfo.sav file). - Greg
