Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/IAmTomShaw/f1-race-replay/issues/12

Description
I encountered an error arcade.application.NoOpenGLException when trying to run the script on Linux (Fedora Workstation 43) using a Conda environment.

Error Message

arcade.application.NoOpenGLException: Unable to create an OpenGL 3.3+ context. Check to make sure your system supports OpenGL 3.3 or higher

Solution
It seems like a conflict between Conda and system driver. I managed to fix it by updating the libstdcxx-ng library in Conda.

Run this command in your terminal:

$ conda install -c conda-forge libstdcxx-ng

Hope this helps!
