Centos 7.4.1708
I was able to install OK using the Linux build directions form the repo, but OBS won't launch without error:
"Failed to initialize video. Your GPU may not be supported, or your graphics drivers may need to be updated". I'm using the latest x11 drives for my card, Intel 4 Series Chipset Integrated graphics controller (or so yum tells me and I didn't find any on the vendor website for this box) I tried to make uninstall, but that didn't work. I tried to remove it from Application Installer and that doesn't work.

Anyone know of a way to get OBS uninstalled?

Hey Harold,
Here it is:
OpenGL vendor string: Intel Open Source Technology Center
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI Intel(R) Q45/Q43
OpenGL version string: 2.1 Mesa 17.0.1
OpenGL shading language version string: 1.20
OpenGL extensions:
OpenGL ES profile version string: OpenGL ES 2.0 Mesa 17.0.1
OpenGL ES profile shading language version string: OpenGL ES GLSL ES 1.0.16
OpenGL ES profile extensions:

I tried the make uninstall & sudo make uninstall, but my message was
make: *** No rule to make target `uninstall'. Stop.
make -n install is a bit over my head. I'm not sure where to start or what to do to undo it manually.

Yeah, that video card is too old, opengl 2.1 is what it supports, OBS REQUIRES 3.2 support

Yes, I figured that out, way too late.
Any idea how to remove the software? Am I just removing the folders that it created under /home/scooter/obs-studio? That's what I gather from reading the make -n install output.
