Bug ID: 375730 Summary: Starting Kwin with NVidia Proprietary drivers / libraries throws: "Plasma is unable to start as it could not correctly use OpenGL 2." Product: plasmashell Version: master Platform: Gentoo Packages OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: critical Priority: NOR Component: general Assignee: k...@davidedmundson.co.uk Reporter: christian_bur...@yahoo.com CC: bhus...@gmail.com, christian_bur...@yahoo.com, kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org, plasma-b...@kde.org Target Milestone: 1.0 +++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #375679 +++ This happens every time and it's NOT an issue with opencl/opengl libraries, NVidia's proprietary driver or underlying hardware capabilities, it's a BUG in the check which is done prior to launching Kwin. The same configuration and libraries are working great when running other Desktop Environments while using the same libraries and drivers. i.e. I can run World of Warcraft flawlessly with wine with opengl-3.1 from LxQT.
