Opengl Version For Intel Gma 4500 Driver

Hi, I have a Samsung N150 Plus netbook with Intel Atom N550 CPU and it comes with Graphics Media Accelerator 3150. I want to run a game that needs OpenGL 2.1. Some people said they got OpenGL 2.1 on Linux on their GMA 3150. So I tried force updating my GMA 3150 Driver to the latest driver given in Intel's website.

But the game still doesn't works, saying it can't obtain graphics context. I tried checking what's my OpenGL version using OpenGL extensions viewer and it says I have OpenGL 1.4. Here is a screenshot of the Summery page of OpenGL Extension Viewer program - My question is, is there any way to get OpenGL 2.x working on GMA 3150? Here is the error I received on the game (if anyone is interested, it also has other details regarding my PC like DxDiag page and such. Intel Atom N550 CPU and it comes with Graphics Media Accelerator 3150.

Intel drivers are blacklisted in Firefox if you have Mesa below 7.10.3 installed. There is a reason for it, because these lower versions will crash.

You might consider downloading and uploading a report for your GPU+driver. My question is, is there any way to get OpenGL 2.x working on GMA 3150? The Linux support is likely provided. In Linux, GL_RENDERER may look something like 'Gallium 0.4 on llvmpipe (LLVM 0x300)', which is Mesa3D via their driver.

However, on Windows you can run with Mesa3D libraries providing you OpenGL support (or OpenGL ES, or Vulkan) instead of your Intel GMA graphics driver. On your GPU (see ), Mesa3D is likely to only implement the graphics pipeline in software (CPU), but potentially provide OpenGL 4.6 level capability. That's better than what you have now, and may get you by until you can upgrade your system. If it's a simple game, it might be good enough. If the graphics are very demanding, that could be too slow. It's worth a shot anyway.

But searching on google, i found similar tool called 'GPU Caps Viewer'.

Idk if that works, but here is all the GPU Data Exports - I am interested in Mesa3D implement, Software rendering is also ok for me (At least its better than Old OpenGL 1.4 Hardware Acceleration). But I have no idea how to get to work with Mesa3D for Windows. There isn't a good setup guide or anything. Sorry for asking this, I am still a noob and have no idea on how to build Mesa3D.
