Hi sorry for disturbance I want to ask a question I have a workstation its OS is Ubuntu 14.04.1 it's CPU is Intel core i7 4th Gen 8M cash 4790 3.6 GHZ it has 2 GPUs Nvidia Gefroce GTX 760 4G RAM 1152 CUDA cores i am working on a scientific research in Bioinformatics in molecular structures dynamics and simulations i need to render and display 3D spheres for Atoms in molecular structures do basic transformations translations handle user input from keyboard and mouse change colors according to user commands i want to learn the latest Opengl language OpenGL 4.3 4.4 4.5 i have installed Nvidia drivers it causes many problems in Linux so i have installed Intel open source graphics drivers and mesa3D because i have intel HD graphics 4600 with 20 processing unit and 1.7G memory my question to you Is OpenGL 3 enough for research basic 3D graphics with input handling what is the new in OpenGL 4 when mesa3D will support OpenGL 4 completely what will happen if i try to run OpenGL 4 on mesa with intel drivers someone said to me that even OpenGL 2 is enough for me even version 3 contains a lot of features used in Game developing and mesa3D support now efficiently OpenGL 3.3 so it is ok also you will have 2 GPUs for scientific computing and numerical computing and the improvements in OpenGL 4 for games like 3D fire you will not need it in molecular structures finally i see that mesa3D has evolved very well it is up to date i feel that it will support OpenGL 4 very soon before 2015 or in Q1 2015 and i need to tell you something Linux OS is the best OS ever for scientific research we need the latest OpenGL for research not games of course many people need it for writing Games anyway if mesa3D supports OpenGL 4.3 it will be a jump in Linux because Linux and mesa3d have open source for Intel Nvidia AMD so if it supports OpenGL 4.3 it will have advantages for accelerating via Intel HD AMD Radeon Nvidia GTX 700 900 series scientific research will be great Games Linux will be a station for 3D games free drivers free OS everything for free with a well documentation and well support for many years so instead windows have all Gamers Linux wiith mesa3D will also has its Gamers and it will be far great more than windows i know that mesa3D developers are under pressure everyone depending on them they have no much time but if you write on social media sites and on your offacial websites facebook twitter google+ mesa3D.org freedesktop.org Linux websites Ubuntu Fedora all distro for multimedia and games that you want Linux has OpenGL 4.3 and more for scientific research for graphics design and web design for Games 3D advanced Games if just mesa complete Opengl 4.3 a new era for Graphic design tools Games will be opened Thank you for your efforts waiting for your reply _______________________________________________ mesa-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/mesa-users
