Re: [Bf-committers] I can't use Opensubdiv on 2.79 RC1 with an AMD RX 480 (Linux)

Brecht, AMDGPU is an opensource driver implementation from AMD. It is NOT directly used by system and/or applications, instead it is hooked up to Mesa via LLVMPipe. So as far as applications are concerned, their OpenGL provider is Mesa. The issue here is that driver developers doesn't seem to be

I think in this specific case the driver is not installed or configured correctly. The system info shows it's not using the AMDGPU driver for OpenGL, but Mesa. The RX 480 is certainly new enough to support OpenSubdiv. On Mon, Aug 7, 2017 at 11:26 PM, Sergey Sharybin wrote:

Blender requires decent OpenGL for drawing OpenSubdiv meshes. This is the only way to get decent speedups. But it's not all that sad as it sounds! In Blender 2.8 we've switched to OpenGL core profile, which has higher OpenGL support than the compatibility profile we use in 2.78/2.79.

Is it possible to use Opensubdiv with CPU only? For example with OpenMP. 2017-08-07 12:24 GMT-04:00 Sergey Sharybin : > Thanks for the file. This clarifies a lots. > > Your driver only provides OpenGL 3.0, for which we need the following > extensions: > > -

Thanks for the file. This clarifies a lots. Your driver only provides OpenGL 3.0, for which we need the following extensions: - uniform_buffer_object - geometry_shader4 - texture_buffer_object The latter two are not supported by the driver you're using (you can see that in the `extensions`
