I want to upgrade mesa in order to get a more recent opengl version for my graphics card. Some games on Steam don’t initialize and have graphic glitches with the actual mesa I’ve got installed (mesa 9.2.3).
I tried installing mesa 10.0.2 and mesa 10.2-git~ from OBS but my PC ended up getting:
Apparently the intel driver does not work anymore.
How can I upgrade correctly the mesa stack?
Opensuse 13.1
Intel HD 4600
kernel 3.13.5
kde 4.12.2
Thanks!
From what repo did you install Mesa from?
I only find Mesa 10.2~git in some home repo.
Maybe you should try the “stable” Mesa 10.0.2 from [noparse]X11:XOrg[/noparse] instead?
Same results. Kwin does not turn effects on, glxgears works, opengl 2.1, VMWare vendor and Gallium 0.4 renderer.
I also tried Kubuntu 14.04 beta which ships with mesa 10.2~git and it works. I get opengl 3.3 with that mesa version, at least. So, I think it’s opensuse related.
FYI, I installed Mesa 10.0.2 now from the [noparse]X11:XOrg[/noparse] repo, and kernel 3.13.5 from Kernel:stable, and it’s working fine here (including Desktop Effects in KDE):
