Hi, I’m using the Endless OS on a old notebook and need to use OpenGL to study for college. How can I check my OpenGL version? I tried the command $ glxinfo, but it won’t work here.
Right, I got that these commands won’t work, I would just like to know if there is a way to know which OpenGL version my notebook has and, if it’s possible, how.
@mhall119 Could help

What happens when you try to run gxinfo? It works for me.
bash: gxinfo: command not found

Oh, I must have installed it as a dependency on something else.
Another option it to open Chrome and go to chrome://gpu/ and in there will be GL_VERSION

I couldn’t make the GLUT library work on CodeBlocks anyway, so I guess I’ll use the Endless for everyday use and use another distro for work.
But thanks, guys!
So does this mean that graphics hardware acceleration cannot be used on Endless?
We do have hardware acceleration; this means only that the glxinfo utility isn’t installed.
