INSTALL CISCO PACKET TRACER on UBUNTU 24.04

Normally you'll have some issues while installing packet tracer and the Cisco or Ubuntu recommendations won't work. 

Download your packet tracer first, that is obligatory.

Then download this:

   https://packages.ubuntu.com/jammy-updates/amd64/libgl1-mesa-glx/download

If the website states error go here:
   https://packages.ubuntu.com/
   Search for this package: libgl1-mesa-glx

Use chown 777 on both files (anyways after you'll delete them)

Then simply install both packages with apt. Not with dpkg !!!

  • sudo apt install /home/levi/Downloads/libgl1-mesa-glx_23.0.4-0ubuntu1~22.04.1_amd64.deb 
  • sudo apt install /home/levi/Downloads/CiscoPacketTracer822_amd64_signed.deb

That is it. After this, no more issues should pop up. It will work just fine.
