+Ubuntu 14.04 will not have the libglfw3-dev package in its repositories. You can either build the library from source (following the instructions listed) or install the library from a PPA as follows:
+
+   sudo apt-add repository ppa:keithw/glfw3
+   sudo apt-get update
+   sudo apt-get install glfw3

 After this point, the installation should proceed identically to Ubuntu 14.10 or newer.
 
 If your system has a CUDA GPU, we suggest downloading the latest drivers
