OpenGL what? There's OpenGL-1.x and 2.x. Some video cards are not capable of 2.x

Fedora were the first distro to have ATI/AMD graphics set up properly. They do go to lengths to set up every video card, but you may not find proprietary drivers. Please detail your video card, Your video driver, your application needing openGL, and the version (1.x or 2.x) and we'll start from there

Also, please let us know what exactly you mean by "enabling OpenGL". What exactly did you try?
