I ran this exact code on another machine, and it worked perfectly (and I am quite sure that that machine does not support GL 4.3 compatible). A reliable software which displays useful information about the current OpenGL 3D accelerator and new Vulkan. New version for Mac, CPUID, and Apple Silicon native support, Metal and other improvements.
#Opengl 4.3 supported cards drivers
I thought it might be the graphics drivers that are not up to date, but if they are not up to date, then would glxinfo still tell me that version 4.50 is supported? It also seems like Ubuntu has the latest Intel graphics drivers installed already, and I do not want to risk installing graphics drivers that might break my display. New version 6.0 for Windows, now available, 20th Anniversary of OpenGL Extensions Viewer, with CPUID. In my code, I do set the context profile to core, with the following statement SDL_GL_SetAttribute(SDL_GL_CONTEXT_PROFILE_MASK, SDL_GL_CONTEXT_PROFILE_CORE)Īfter which I set the context major and minor versions to 4 and 3, respectively.Īny ideas? I am on Ubuntu 18.04.
This should mean that my graphics card can support GLSL version 4.30, right? However, my shader compilation fails with the following message error: GLSL 4.30 is not supported. OpenGL ES profile shading language version string: OpenGL ES GLSL ES 3.10 OpenGL ES profile version string: OpenGL ES 3.1 Mesa 18.0.0-rc5 OpenGL shading language version string: 1.30 However, the open-source Mesa support will still be a ways out. AMD will also soon be released a Catalyst beta with the GL 4.3 / GLSL 4.30 support.
#Opengl 4.3 supported cards driver
I tried deleting the old drivers (10.) and installing the newest ones (15.) manually but they automatically downshift to the old. While the OpenGL 4.3 specification was just released (along with OpenGL ES 3.0), theres already a beta NVIDIA Linux proprietary driver supporting this latest desktop graphics API from Khronos. Plus, theres another Gallium software driver. I use ProBook 4540s with integrated Intel 4000, which should be compatible with OpenGL 4.3, but HP has still not provided us fitting drivers as the latest ones on HP site are only using OpenGL 4.0. OpenGL version string: 3.0 Mesa 18.0.0-rc5 July 2016: Mesa 12.0 is released, including OpenGL 4.3 support and initial support for Vulkan for Intel GPUs. OpenGL core profile profile mask: core profile OpenGL core profile context flags: (none) OpenGL core profile shading language version string: 4.50 OpenGL core profile version string: 4.5 (Core Profile) Mesa 18.0.0-rc5 OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI Intel(R) Haswell Mobile When I run glxinfo | grep "OpenGL", I get OpenGL vendor string: Intel Open Source Technology Center I have an Intel HD4400 graphics card in my laptop.
