Description

A fresh Steam install, no mods at all.

Most menus do not show any text. the Main menu does, but to load a game does not. If i click the empty area the save game "should" be, it allows me to load it.

The part category chooser on the left side also shows the same behavior: It does not show visibly, though I can select them.

Guessing this may be specific to a certain hardware/driver setup, as such I suspect the devs would greatly appreciate extra info such as log files & hardware info.

I'm not a linux person, but wiki suggests the following:
Linux: The log is written to /home/user/.config/unity3d/Squad/Kerbal Space Program/Player.log
Linux: for linux an application called 'hardinfo' will gather all required information. Save the information to a location you will remember.

I've attached both Player.log and hardinfo report

Until the devs weigh in the best I can offer in the meantime is:

(1) see if you can get the proprietary NVidia drivers for your GT730, as it seems you're currently running the fallback open source Gallium drivers
(2) try to simplify monitor setup, if only to narrow down the issue and eliminate a possible cause - eg, does it work as expected with only the 1080p monitor plugged in?

This is a known issue with the version of Unity that KSP 1.1.3 was made with.

It affects all Linux open source drivers.

Please start KSP with the -force-glcore command line argument, like this.

./KSP.x86 -force-glcore

You can use a shell script to start KSP for you.

#! /bin/sh
cd "/home/username/path/to/Kerbal Space Program/"
./KSP.x86 -force-glcore

Hope this helps.

Doing both of these things have made it work. Ive made the shell script and that runs perfectly. If anyone else comes upon this thread, remember to make the script Executable in the files Properties->Permissions tab, or running chmod +x scriptname in a terminal
