So, I got a bug today when I was trying to use OBS on Ubuntu 14.04. I following these instructions https://obsproject.com/forum/threads/ubuntu-14-04-ppa-installation-instructions.16495/

But, it didn't work. I really want to stream to Twitch, but no. Here's my log:
07:25:07 AM: OBS 0.6.4-65-g56899df (linux)
07:25:07 AM: Processor: 2 logical cores
07:25:07 AM: Processor: AMD Athlon(tm) II X2 245 Processor

07:25:07 AM: Kernel Version: Linux 3.13.0-45-generic
07:25:07 AM: Distribution: "Ubuntu" "14.04"
07:25:07 AM: audio settings reset:

07:25:07 AM: Failed to create OpenGL context.
07:25:07 AM: device_create (GL) failed
07:25:07 AM: Failed to initialize video: Unspecified error
 
To be honest, I don't know what you mean. So if you could give me pointers as what it is, thanks!
 
It said "The program 'glxinfo' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing: sudo apt-get install mesa-utils" So I installed it then I installed it and then did it again. Here's what it said:
OpenGL vendor string: X.Org
OpenGL renderer string: Gallium 0.4 on AMD RS880
OpenGL core profile version string: 3.1 (Core Profile) Mesa 10.1.3
OpenGL core profile shading language version string: 1.40
OpenGL core profile context flags: (none)
OpenGL core profile extensions:
OpenGL version string: 3.0 Mesa 10.1.3
OpenGL shading language version string: 1.30
OpenGL context flags: (none)
OpenGL extensions:

Note, I did do anything else but type "sudo apt-get install mesa-utils" and "sudo apt-get update" to get OpenGL.
 
Ok now I installed obs and FFMPEG again and here's my log now:

I agree with Osiris...your GPU RS880 (so I assume you got a Radeon HD 4250) can only support until OpenGL 3.1 with Mesa (and worse with Catalyst).

In short, your graphics card is too old to fully run OBS. Sorry ! :/

any recent intel chip should work and or I can tell you that the 750Ti is a beast of a card. It even does 4k gaming. We've been discussing it on the Linux Tech and Gaming podcast. Great GPU for the money
