3D graphics fails with Intel HD Graphic card

Asked by Nergal Dimitri

Hi,

I can't get 3D graphics (OpenGL) to work with an ProBook 6450b Laptop, it uses an Intel HD graphic card (i915).
The problem seems to be that Xorg cannot load glx module. I've tried everything and uses Ubuntu 11.04 and compiled the latest driver for my gfx card.

Here are some various outputs:

Xorg.log:

Log a bug. Natty is NOT ready and NOT stable so you will get issues like this. If you need a stable OS then use maverick. If you are happy to stomach bugs and feature holes to log bugs to help get the OS ready for release then use Natty.

I've had the exact same problem with maverick, that's the reason I upgraded to Natty.

You are still currently using Natty, so your issue is now with Natty. You should log a bug with:

ubuntu-bug xserver-xorg-video-intel

You may need an xorg.conf file to make the driver load properly.

Can you help with this problem?
