To run my application OpenGL version 2.0 or higher is required.



glxinfo | grep OpenGL yields:



Xlib: extension "NV-GLX" missing on display ":1007.0".
OpenGL vendor string: Mesa project: www.mesa3d.org
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect
OpenGL version string: 1.2 (1.5 Mesa 6.4.1)
OpenGL extensions:


/sbin/lspci -v yields:



01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GT218 [GeForce 310] (rev a2) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])
Subsystem: Device 1b0a:9060

Capabilities: [78] Express Endpoint, MSI 00
Capabilities: [b4] Vendor Specific Information: Len=14 <?>
Kernel modules: nvidiafb, nvidia-169_07, nvidia


What I've tried:



Installing NVIDIA-Linux-x86-310.32.run driver (It supports my graphics card).



Any pointers how to upgrade to OpenGL 2.0?

    Blacklist all the kernel modules mentioned in lspci -v other than nvidia. Restart and make sure (lsmod) that nvidia is loaded after you start Xorg.

  • Centos 5 stems from 2007. Its graphics stack is even older. Are you sure you don't want to upgrade to something more recent?

Install the NVIDIA vendor-provided graphics drivers. It's preferable to use the drivers (kmod-nvidia package) as provided in the RPM Fusion (non-free) repository, or you can manually install them from the NVIDIA web site (not recommended since if something goes wrong you risk trashing your installation).

  • @Vikram you need to tell Xorg to use the nvidia driver. Check your xorg config file (create one if needed) and make sure in the Device section there is a line Driver "nvidia".
