Could not find required OpenGl entry point 'gColorMaskIndexedEXT'! #1513

Open meslowinski opened 10 years ago

meslowinski commented 10 years ago

I am trying to play Half-Life 2 on Steam. I am running Ubuntu 12.04. I receive this message when I try to play the game. Could not find required OpenGl entry point 'gColorMaskIndexedEXT'! Either your video card is unsupported or OpenGl needs to be updated' I have a dual boot machine with Windows 7 and it works just fine with the same video card in Windows. What is causing this problem?

Half-Life 2 issues are being tracked at https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Source-1-Games, some basic information is needed to answer your question, in particular, what video card are you using and what driver version is in use, one way to find this information is listed at https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Source-1-Games#system-information.

I submitted an issue with system specs and problem description but I don't see it in the issue list for Half-Life2 at Source-1?

Tele42 commented 10 years ago

Right, because you opened this issue report in the half-life 1 and other gold source games issue tracker. Unfortunately, support for the geforce 6xxx and 7xxx series cards were dropped before gColorMaskIndexedEXT was added to the proprietary driver, which is needed for valve's directx to opengl translation layer.

I'm sorry I put it in the wrong games tracker. This is the first time I used github for an issue. I have a hard time buying your explanation about the geforce 6xxx video card. Half Life 1 works just fine in linux. Also, Half Life 2 runs fine under steam on windows 7 with the same video card and driver version.
