Attempted to follow the sudoku example up to chapter 5 where you are supposed to compile and the game board is displayed. Instead I get the following error with this backtrace:

thread 'main' panicked at 'Could not create window: "Couldn\'t find any pixel format that matches the criterias."', libcore/result.rs:945:5

I went through the code to make sure I did not make an error, and just to be extra sure, I cloned the repository and tried to build the example from the source provided. This is the error and backtrace provided from that:
