When your computer does not have the Optimus Technolog (NVidia) or Hybrid Graphics technology (ATI), you are likely to be unable to run FlightGear. Integrated graphics cards are very weak; too weak for FlightGear. You can try to switch of some of the eye-candy though, but even then the same error may appear...
When your computer does not have the Optimus Technolog (NVidia) or Hybrid Graphics technology (ATI), you are likely to be unable to run FlightGear at the current graphics settings. See [[Howto:Improve framerates#Shaders]] for instructions on how to switch off demanding eye candy.
It may be useful to check the latest drivers for your graphic card.
 
•If you have a Nvidia GPU, then visit http://wiki.flightgear.org/Howto:Improve_framerates#nVidia.
Apart from the above mentioned stuff, it may be useful to install the latest drivers for your graphics card:
•For '''ATI line''' of video cards, look at this site: http://www.amd.com/us/products/technologies/amd-catalyst/pages/catalyst.aspx .You should find a file named "Catalyst control center", which allow you to modify the behaviour of your GPU with flightgear. I mean the Antialiasing control, the triple buffering, etc.

You are trying to run an aircraft not compatible with your FlightGear version. Most of the time, this error appears when you fly an aircraft, textured with .png files on versions older than 1.9. Convert the textures manually to .rgb or upgrade your FlightGear version.
