Okay, so I added permissions so that the launcher DOES go to the menu and login. However, the issue lies in that it simply won't load past the menu screen. I tried various other linux distros and it does the same thing: loads the menu but won't load anything else. I did test out the server and people CAN go to the server version of minecraft_server.jar. the issue lies in the programming of minecraft itself. here's the log report that I'm getting when trying to run the CLIENT version of minecraft.

I could go in and try to solve the issue for the .so but IDK if that'd do much. I do have 1 gigabyte of memory on the machine, but the swap data bumps it up to 2 gigabytes. it has 2 cores inside the machine both running 1.86 ghz. I don't think it's an issue with my machine, but if anyone has any suggestions let me know. even though it's an atom processor, I have managed to get it to run with windows 8, which by the way, is supported. However, windows 8 had some data corruption, so I switched to linux. Generally speaking, windows 8 uses up more ram than linux, so IDK what the issue is. Like I said, I did manage to get it to the menu screen, but after that, it wouldn't load.

libraries and opengls always scare me, but that did in fact work. thanks for the help epikal. *backs up his .minecraft file.* Didn't think it'd be that much of issue seeing as how it's java based, but I am wrong in this case.
