Comment 1 MERCIER Jonathan 2012-04-20 10:53:39 UTC
ok it seem mesa 78.0 support openGL 3 only for intel graphic card and for amd et nvidia they are some pattent issue..

You can close this bug if that is the problem

Comment 2 Arne Woerner 2012-04-25 07:45:53 UTC
i have a HD Graphics 3000 (Core i7-2600K, Sandybridge),
but my says OpenGL 2.1 too:
> glxinfo | grep OpenGL
OpenGL vendor string: Tungsten Graphics, Inc
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI Intel(R) Sandybridge Desktop 
OpenGL version string: 2.1 Mesa 8.0.2
OpenGL shading language version string: 1.30

did i install sth wrong?

i think it is that ARB_texture_float license thingy... but Intel should have a license for that...

Comment 3 Adam Jackson 2012-04-26 13:53:50 UTC
We're not doing anything special to Mesa's configuration here.  This is an upstream Mesa bug if it's anything.

Comment 4 jan p. springer 2012-06-04 12:31:46 UTC
well, how would i go about to find out what's wrong here?

Comment 5 jan p. springer 2012-07-11 17:23:22 UTC
i know the bug is closed. still, if anybody knows how to track down why mesa 8 on sandybridge gfx does not enable opengl 3 i would really like to hear it?

Comment 6 Arne Woerner 2012-07-11 20:35:48 UTC
it seems like intel has no license for open source related OpenGL 3...
