Problem with using OpenGL with your graphics card? Or driver?
Hi,

if your laptop have an Intel integrated graphic card I think this is normal.

Are you using Processing 2.0b3 or an alpha version? Or 1.5.1?

Anyway, is your sketch working properly?

Laptop in rather new, card: nVidia GeForce310M, sketches I tried are examples, so everything is okay with them, I'm using  Processing 2.0b3
hi!

i have the same problem, linux mint 14, processing 2.07b

you find some solution?

bye
Hi! Hope( switched to windows and I'm still getting this error on the second laptop
For linux you need to install the manufacturers driver to get decent 3D acceleration. Fortunately the nvidia linux drivers are rather good. You've essentially got two choice's let ubuntu do it for you (and trail a bit behind in terms of driver development) or download the linux driver from NVIDIA http://www.geforce.com/drivers/results/52240 and install it yourself (currently version 310.91).  Downloading and installing the driver yourself is straightforward enough, but best to find a linux geek to run through it the first time.
Hallo,
I have the same problem with my  Intel integrated graphic card on my laptop.
