[opengl][intel hd4400] how to install intel opengl drivers ???

English Hardware
#1

Greetings !

I tried the intel-gfx-installer-for-linux (from source code) but it failed → opensuse is not supported :{

I bought a ****** lenovo G70 and got the bad surprise that no 3D accelerator nore open GL were installed referring to Kinfocenter :{

I got 3.0 Mesa 10.3.7
glx 1.4 (sgi)
glu 1.3

Problem is: all the shaders I did in opengl/glsl are not taken in count because of the version supported didn’t match the glsl installed.

I installed glew 1.13.0 but can not state opengl 4.5 was installed (at least 3.0 but the shaders in 300 core doesn’t compile).

How can I set the driver for intel HD4400 (supposed to be installed on my computer) for opensuse 13.2 ?

Intel is built into the kernel

So already there. if not being used pleas check /var/log/Xorg.0.log

it may show why But is it is not that there is no driver

I’m no OpenGL expert, but it seems that you are pointing in the wrong direction.
The current 3D renderer for Intel graphics is the Mesa library, which with current versions and the i965 Intel driver cover up to OpenGL 3.0 with OpenSUSE 13.2 and OpenGL 3.3 in Leap and Tumbleweed if I’m not mistaken.

If you need OpenGL 4.5 in OpenSUSE you currently need the Nvidia driver, but maybe your G70 is a version with no Nvidia chip?

Check http://mesamatrix.net/ for further details.
Hope this helps.

unfortunately yes :{

I was expecting opengl as a standard with ‘extensions’ for different manufacturers… I was wrong :{
