# Platform setup with Generic Linux

The main task is to get the X Server up and running with some sort of hardware or software graphics support. This process can be validated by using the `glxinfo` command to see graphics driver informational output and ensure your system is configured correctly.

1. Install platform specific X server package.
2. Install required packages for opengl libGL and libGLU libraries.
3. Install required package for `glxinfo` in order to validate X server setup.
4. Start the X server. Note in some cases X can automatically detect the configuration, in other cases a configuration file might be required.
5. Export the DISPLAY variable. In some cases this will be `:0.0`.
6. You can validate that things are working correctly if the glxinfo command successfully prints graphics driver information
