I'm using OpenGL 3.0 with Mesa 10.3.2 in Debian 8.1 Jessie by system default, but I need OpenGL 3.3 and I don't know how to enable it. I tried to update Mesa but it's still with OpenGL 3.0.

This is the output of glxinfo | grep OpenGL:

  • Are you positive your hardware even supports OpenGL 3.3? I noticed two things, first Mesa 10.3.2 already supports OpenGL 3.3, and second Mesa 10.5.x is the current version. So if you are only able to use OpenGL 3.0 it means its a hardware limitation. Clarify what hardware you have so I can submit an answer.

  • I have Intel HD Graphics. Not a dedicated GPU like nvidia or ATI, on Intel Celeron 1000M CPU.

  • I know that. You literally provided at least that much in the question itself. You should update your question to include the CPU information. What about my other question? I still need to know if the hardware even supports OpenGL 3.3. The version of Mesa you have installed already supports OpenGL 3.3

  • So the hardware itself supports OpenGL 4.0. Which means this is a driver problem more then likely. I would simply update Mesa to the current version. Be sure you update the question with all relevant information. The output of the command indicates you are already using the OpenGL 3.3 profile. I am confused about what the problem is exactly

  • Yeah, I readed that my graphics card supports OpenGL 4.0. In another post I readed how to enable OpenGL 3.3 with Intel HD using a Ubuntu repository, but it won't work for Debian. Upgraded to Mesa 10.5.5 from sid packages, still with OpenGL 3.0 profile. Updated the first post with all the CPU information.

OpenGL core profile version string: 3.3 (Core Profile) Mesa 10.3.2

You have OpenGL 3.3 already...
