Question / Help Linux Mint 17.1 Installation OpenGL Problem

[TeoChristian]

Hello!

I have a problem after installing OBS on my Linux Mint 17.1 KDE (Ubuntu based edition).

When I start OBS i get this error: Failed to create OpenGL context. AND Failed to create context!

I installed intel linux graphics but the same problem.

Does anyone knows how can I solve this problem. I need to use OBS urgently.

Thank you so much!

The error:

OBS MP needs at least OpenGL 3.2 to fully work...sorry but your graphics chipset is too old ! :/

 

[TeoChristian]

Thank you for your response. I understand. So I can't use OBS. I will search similar software.

Could also mean you just need a later version of mesa. They only recently added support for OpenGL 3.2.

Unfortunately, if I remember well, Intel integrated OpenGL 3.2-3.3 in Mesa for its integrated GPU only from "Sandy Bridge" generation to the last one. And "Ironlake" is the generation just before "Sandy Bridge"...
