I know this question has been asked one time before and that guy solved it by updating his video card drivers but in my case it didn't.
Basically when I tried to run the "Hello, world" example I got the following error:
X Error of failed request: BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)
Major opcode of failed request: 4 (X_DestroyWindow)
Resource id in failed request: 0xe00017
Serial number of failed request: 312
Current serial number in output stream: 312
AL lib: (EE) alc_cleanup: 1 device not closed
Before you ask, I made sure to run it properly, I tried to run it as a .love file, I updated my drivers.
There's some info about my PC, it's old, I use it only for programming and it holds very well:
OS: Arch Linux x86_64
Host: HP Compaq dc7600 Small Form Factor
Kernel: 4.20.3-arch1-1-ARCH
Packages: 1269 (pacman)
Shell: bash 5.0.0
CPU: Intel Celeron 2.80GHz (1) @ 2.790GHz
GPU: Intel 82945G/GZ
Memory: 625MiB / 2488MiB
Thanks in advance.

Make sure the version of SDL2 on your system is as up to date as possible (2.0.9 is the latest version).

I've got sdl 1.2.15-10 and sdl2 2.0.9-1 installed, could it be that LOVE tries to use sdl1 instead of sdl2?

I lost the original account so I'm using this one to help anyone who stumbles here
Turns out all I needed to do is use hardware made in the past 10 years :^)
