Old OpenGL vesion (3.0.0) installed with latest drivers of A6000

Graphics / Linux Linux

Hi folks,

I’m testing out an A6000 at work (University), and have noticed the latest drivers for it use a very old OpenGL version:

glxinfo | grep “OpenGL version”
OpenGL version string: 3.0.0 NVIDIA 460.73.01

If I check one of our M5000 workstations, I get this:

glxinfo | grep “OpenGL version”
OpenGL version string: 4.6.0 NVIDIA 460.67

This is a problem for us as an application we use requires OpenGL 4.2 or greater. Looking for advice,

Red Hat Enterprise Linux Workstation release 7.9 (Maipo)

cheers

Sounds like you’re using indirect glx

Thanks, this seemed to be the case - a rebuild fixed.
