Plot3D does not show result on Linux Mint 17

Posted 12 years ago

I just installed Mathematica on my laptop. I use Linux Mint 17. My problem is that I cannot see any 3D graphics. Or more precisely, when I open the Plot3D reference page, I can see the 3D graphs, but when I run the codes myself, the graphs disappear. On the other hand, in the advanced Manipulate functionality tutorial I don't even see the original 3D graphs, just a blank screen of the correct size. 2D graphics work fine. As I understand, I probably have to do something with the video drivers, but if you could direct me to some detailed directions, it would be helpful. Thanks, Ferenc

some details:
operating system: Linux Mint 17
graphics card: AMD/ATI RV320/M22 Mobility Radeon x300
drivers: X.Org 1.15.1 ati,radeon
GLX renderer: Gallium 0.4 on ATI RV370, GLX version 2.1 Mesa 10.1.0

Thank you for the detailed response. Running Mathematica with the mesa option worked. Th card is not NVIDIA, so I did not try the other solution.
