Hi, I installed Lubuntu 18.0.4 in this 9 year old hp laptop: https://support.hp.com/au-en/document/c02246342
I tried to play a game I got on steam but it doesn't run at all. This is the log from the game:



Desktop is 1366 x 768 @ 60 Hz
Unable to find a supported OpenGL core profile
Failed to create valid graphics context: please ensure you meet the minimum requirements

So I went to https://01.org/linuxgraphics/downloads/2018q1-intel-graphics-stack-recipe
for a driver but my hardware is not in the sported hardware list.

The video driver I got is i915.

And this is what I get from the system profiler:
283268

The program complains that it needs at least openGL version 3.2. This site (https://community.khronos.org/t/opengl-version-for-intel-gma-4500/69648) tells me that your graphics unit only supports openGL 2.1. So it's not going to work. The game needs features in your hardware that aren't present.

Thanks, I guess that's it :/
