Bug Description

I encountered an error while installing the Ubuntu SDK after following the steps listed to install the SDK. (OpenGL error when trying to load the welcome mode screen, from what I can tell, I put a post up on askubuntu about it).

This brought to my attention that there's no information on troubleshooting, or links to help, on the install instructions. Please include some troubleshooting steps, common problems, or even just links to askubuntu in the install steps. Do not just assume that the user will have everything go perfectly. Do not have links to the community in the site-map and think that is enough. Make support part of the documentation specifically, not something that a user has to dig for.

Also do not get offended by my use of imperatives (please :P). It's really just a list of what I think would help the documentation, filtered through my frustration at having to figure out my particular issue before I can start using the SDK.

Can you add a link to your askubuntu question? Normally installing these packages should really just work.
