Hi - I am running OpenSuSE 15.2 with the KDE desktop on my media center computer (freshly installed) and I tried to start Clementine (no problems) and tried to start the projectM visualizer. In the past I never had much trouble with this but this time projectM is spitting out the following error message when I try to start it manually. Anyone care to translate and suggest a solution? I dunno what else info to supply, seems like a lot of different components could be involved, audio, video so will await for request which I will then gladly supply. Thanks in advance, Marc...

Hi Simon, First off thanks for taking the time to reply, I much appreciate it. I am a bit confused however, my system has an integrated Intel graphics processor (Xeon E3-1200 v3/4th Gen Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller) on the motherboard and my understanding is that the drivers for this chip (i915 I believe) are installed as part of the kernel package itself. So does this mean that the kernel driver is not compatible with, nor supports version 3.30 of GLSL? If so, why is the projectM package that is in the OpenSuSE 15.2 repos requiring version 3.30 of GLSL? Shouldn't OpenSuSE 15.2 be supplying an older version of projectM? What path do you recommend I take to fix this issue? Bug report? Buy a new graphic's card? Install an older version of projectM? (not sure how) Find and install a newer version of the i915 driver, in the kernel? (That feels like an awful difficult path to try an follow and I have no idea how!) Thanks again for any advice, I am not sure what to do next... FYI - glxinfo -B reports - Max GLES[23] profile version: 3.1 on my system.
