No OpenGL support in video driver

Post by lovesongslover »

So, i had love 0.7 installed on my ubuntu 12.04 on a VirtualBox on top of a windows 8.1 with 3d enabled.
My video card is geforce hd 3000.
It worked nicely.
I decided to upgrade it to 0.9. from ppa. It stopped working.

So i tried to do what zulli4n did: http://love2d.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=76981
Did not work.

with
$ /usr/lib/nux/unity_support_test -p
OpenGL vendor string: Humper
OpenGL renderer string: Chromium
OpenGL version string: 2.1 Chromium 1.9

Not software rendered: yes
Not blacklisted: yes
GLX fbconfig: yes
GLX texture from pixmap: yes
GL npot or rect textures: yes
GL vertex program: yes
GL fragment program: yes
GL vertex buffer object: yes
GL framebuffer object: yes
GL version is 1.4+: yes

Unity 3D supported: yes

with
$ glxinfo | grep OpenGL
OpenGL vendor string: Humper
OpenGL renderer string: Chromium
OpenGL version string: 2.1 Chromium 1.9
OpenGL shading language version string: 1.40 - Intel Build 9.17.10.3347

One of my thoughts is that love 0.9 uses a diferent version of OpenGL, can it be? how can i fix it?

That error is generated by SDL2 when it doesn't have a platform-specific backend compiled in which can create an OpenGL context. For Linux, this means SDL2 wasn't compiled with GLX support (GLX is part of X11).
