Doing a search on Google for the exact text in your email returns two
results, both for the Eschalon Book I game.  One of the two results
gives a solution (YMMV):

Are you using any Nvidia drivers, especially on an x86_64 CPU?  If so,
did their recommendation of making sure you have the 32-bit version of
the Nvidia OpenGL libs work for you?  The game is 32-bit and it
appears that running some/most/all 32-bit OpenGL games on x86_64 Linux
distros requires the 32-bit compat libs.  I don't know what distro or
version you're trying to get this working under, so here are some
possibly relevant links:
