Reinstall Graphics Driver

[Devanil_Choudhury]

Hi..
I have recently installed a 3d visualization software named VAPOR in Ubuntu-14.04 LTS. My graphics details are Intel sandybridge hd graphics. But during running this vapor there is always a error like -

Code: 4006

Message: GL Vendor String is MESA.

Graphics drivers may need to be reinstalled


Though I have Mesa and for Ubuntu there is default graphics driver Radeon. So please suggest me how to solve this problem.

Thanks in advance.

May or may not help, but have you read this? https://www.vapor.ucar.edu/forums/co...ound-directory

Mesa and Radeon are words used in connection with the open source video driver for AMD/ATI graphic adapters. The error message is telling you that the software needs a proprietary video driver. Go to System Settings>Software and Updates>Additional Drivers tab and allow the utility to find video drivers for you. The machine needs to be connected to the internet. Then you can select a proprietary video driver. See if that makes any difference.

Regards.
