["Failed to initialize graphics" on GT 630 supporting OpenGL 4.4]

Found what the problem was, and it was indeed not a bug.

 

Installing NVidia drivers downloaded from the NVidia website doesn't really work. OpenGL libraries get overrided by mesa drivers I think, not sure about that though...

What helped was this.

 

Thanks for answering, and special thanks to Josh for porting! Nice

So, I got this message when I tried running Leadwerks from command line:

OpenGL 210?

 

Note sure if this has anything to do with it, but have you executed this?

I have a GTX560 and is running Ubuntu 13.10 without problems.

Don't know if the drivers are the same for our cards though.

 

Yep, that's the one I had to run to install it. The supplied install.sh didn't work.

Some quick google, don't know if your card is concerned ?

That's an old driver version, don't see what your post has to do with the issue?

The built-in is an Intel HD Graphics 2500. Linux does not list that chip on lspci... So I guess it's not even recognized.

My NVidia card is the active card when I check with lspci (has the [VGA controller] entry). Also when I check with NVidia X Server config tool, my NVidia card is controlling the X screen. I honestly don't think Leadwerks is switching graphics cards by itself.

Yes, downloaded it yesterday

Oh and running Ubuntu 13.10

Hi,

 

I get the "Failed to initialize graphics" message when starting Leadwerks on my Linux machine.

I have an NVidia GT 630 card, which supports OpenGL 4. NVidia driver 331.49 with OpenGL 4.4 installed.

 

Have I missed something? I do have a built-in graphics chip as well, but that's not active afaik...
