[Neurodebian-users] openGL 3.3 for intel integrated graphic card ?

[romain valabregue]

Hi
the best is to have an nvidia card (and not the intel chipset) I will 
remember for my next laptop.
For now it seems that testing or sid will not work for my case

Why do I still have openGL3 with mesa 10 ?
Checking for OpenGL: 3.0 Mesa 10.1.4


It is not clear to me which package give me the openGL

In have in version 10.1 :
libgl1-mesa-dev
libgl1-mesa-glx
libgl1-mesa-dri
liglapi-mesa
mesa-common-dev


but libglu1-mesa (and libglu1-mesa-dev) are now with version 9.0

It seems to me that the opengl soft depend on libglu1-mesa, but I can 
not find higher version


Thanks

Romain
