How to know if I have OpenGL or Mesa ??
I'm sorry about this really basic question, but I am really new to Linux, and am trying to understand it as a user... I use the Caixa Mágica Linux and, as a programmer, try to find more information about the graphic devices and APIs I could use on my platform... In Linux, where can I find something like the "control Panel" ???
What I need is to know what is the graphic API used by Linux (I guess it can only be OpenGL, right?? ) - when trying by myself to find this kind of info, I noticed a file named something like Mesa.. or alike (don't ask me how I found this - I don't remember :(( ), so I was kind of desappointed by that... So, where do I go to find the graphic API ( In windows it would be the c:\Windows\System32\opengl32.dll or c:\windows\System32\d3d9.dll ) I can use for my graphic applications ?? thank you |
Code:
lsmod Dunno if it helps. |
You can find out of you have hardware or software (Mesa) OpenGL by sifting through the output of 'glxinfo' :)
