I grabbed puredata 0.43.4 last night on my laptop, to play around with some GEM stuff..
But now, everytime I want to create a GEM window, i get the following error;
GEM: failed to init GLEW: your system only supports openGL-1.0
Google tells me intel's drivers have and will never support more than opengl 1.4.
well, openGL-1.4 is more than openGL-1.0. and openGL-1.4 should be sufficient (unless you want shaders and the like)
So this problem must have always existed?
yes, most likely.
Still this is the first time I have seen it...
what does glewinfo tell you?
Is it possible that this check only recently got introduced? Is there a way around it? If i promise to only use older openGL features, can I then still use it? :)
what's the problem you are having? (an error message is not a problem by itself; it only tells you that there might be a real problem)
Gem should be able to run with older openGL versions (that's why we are using GLEW in the first place), probably even with 1.0
