Title: GLSL and Intels
Post by: Petr Schreiber on April 08, 2008, 01:55:32 PM

Hi all,

can anyone confirm there is no Intel based graphic card with GLSL support on XPs?
I really like how GLSL is done, but if Intel will ignore its existence I will need to find a way around this limitation.

I heard it is available for Intel only ( and just sometimes ) under Vista.
That sounds a bit ridiculous, as GLSL is part of OpenGL 2.x specification, which is not so new anymore.

Thanks,
Petr

aaah long time I've not heared any reason for VISTA. May this be the first ? .-))

ATi + GLSL + XP = Ok
NVIDIA + GLSL + XP = Ok
Intel + GLSL + XP = Aaaargh

Maybe reason to think about Intels laziness :)
GLSL is available even via OpenGL 1.5 extension in lot of cases, and that is deadly old specification.

Great they were so in hurry to make DX10 card ::)
I used to have neutral opinion about their cards, now I am getting nervous :)
