The Zink driver is a Gallium driver that emits Vulkan API calls instead of targeting a specific GPU architecture. Tip: In most use-cases, llvmpipe and swr are faster than softpipe. You should see 3 rotating gears when running the program. OpenGL ES profile shading language version string: OpenGL ES GLSL ES 3.00įrom the same package, you can also use glxgears as a basic OpenGL test. OpenGL ES profile version string: OpenGL ES 3.0 Mesa 20.3.4 OpenGL shading language version string: 1.30 OpenGL core profile profile mask: core profile OpenGL core profile context flags: (none)
OpenGL core profile shading language version string: 3.30 OpenGL core profile version string: 3.3 (Core Profile) Mesa 20.3.4 $ glxinfo | grep OpenGL OpenGL vendor string: X.Org To verify your OpenGL installation, you can use mesa-utils glxinfo, which should display output like this (with different values depending on your setup, of course):
mesa-amber is the legacy Mesa package which includes the classic (non-Gallium3D) drivers for older hardware:.
llvmpipe : a software rasterizer which uses LLVM for x86 JIT code generation and is multi-threaded.softpipe : a software rasterizer and a reference Gallium driver.d3d12 : for OpenGL 3.3 support on devices that only support D3D12 (i.e.zink : a Gallium driver used to run OpenGL on top of Vulkan.iris : for Intel's Gen 8 hardware and later.crocus : for Intel's Gen 4 to Gen 7 hardware.virtio_gpu : a virtual GPU driver for virtio, can be used with QEMU based VMMs (like KVM or Xen).nouveau : Nouveau is the open-source driver for NVIDIA GPUs.radeonsi : for AMD's Southern Island GPUs and later.r600 : for AMD's Radeon R600 GPUs up to Northern Islands.mesa is the up to date Mesa package which includes most of the modern drivers for newer hardware:.There are two Mesa packages each with a distinct set of drivers: Mesa also provides software rasterizers, such as llvmpipe. It has a collection of open-source drivers for Intel graphics, ATI, AMD and NVIDIA GPUs. Mesa is an open-source OpenGL implementation, continually updated to support the latest OpenGL specification. To find the code-name of an NVIDIA GPU, check the code-name list from the Nouveau project.To find the family of an AMD (and ATI) GPU, check the decoder ring from the X.Org project.Intel's Gen N hardware does not refer to the generation of the CPU, it refers to the generation of the GPU, which is different from the generation of the CPU.GL_ARB_compatibility was not found, but is available in driver version 8. GL_EXT_paletted_texture was not found, but has the entry point glGetColorTableParameterivEXT

The current OpenGL driver doesn't expose the SOFTWARE/Microsoft/Windows (NT)/CurrentVersion/OpenGLDrivers registry entry. Outdated version of display drivers detectedĪccording the database, you are might be not using the latest version of display drivers for your video card. OpenGL driver version check (Current: 4.4.0 NVIDIA 345.20, Latest known: 8.): GL_EXT_framebuffer_multisample_blit_scaled Shading language version: 4.40 NVIDIA via Cg compiler
(I cannot locate OpenGL drivers newer than below for the NVS 4200M the NVIDIA site has ones for 3-digit NVS model nos. How OpenGL on my machine is reported by OpenGL Extensions Viewer 4.3.6.
Plus I do not know if FreeCAD is using the below OpenGL, and I don't know how to go about discovering whether it does or not.) (Pertains to topic of line transparency not being enabled on my FreeCAD.
