Error when running Stellarium with Intel GPU

I'm trying to run Stellarium on a 2009 desktop computer with an Intel GPU, but I get the following error message:

Your OpenGL subsystem has problems. See log for details. Ignore and suppress this notice in the future and try to continue in degraded mode anyway?

This is the log file:

GL vendor is "Intel Open Source Technology Center"
GL renderer is "Mesa DRI Intel(R) Q35 "
GL Shading Language version is "1.20"
MESA Version Number after parsing:  10.4
Mesa version is fine, we should not see a graphics problem.
GLSL Version Number after parsing:  1.2
This is not enough: we need GLSL1.30 or later.
You should update graphics drivers, graphics hardware, or use the MESA version.
Else, please try to use an older version like 0.12.4, and try there with --safe-mode
You can try to run in an unsupported degraded mode by ignoring the warning and continuing.
But more than likely problems will persist.
Aborting due to OpenGL/GLSL version problems.

I'm using xf86-video-intel version 2.99.917-1 at the moment.

$ lspci | grep VGA
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82Q35 Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02)

I also get extremely slow performances when running 3D game Xonotic, but I don't know if it's due to the same problem. Any suggestion?

Re: Error when running Stellarium with Intel GPU

It seems that my GPU (Intel GMA 3100) is not supported anymore. See https://answers.launchpad.net/stellarium/+faq/2570: "Graphics cards which are no longer supported by Stellarium 0.13 and later include early ATI/AMD Radeon cards up to and including the Xxxx series (built 2004/05), NVidia up to GeForce FXxxx (2003/04), and Intel GMA before X3000, unfortunately also including the popular Atom-based netbooks of 2010."

Re: Error when running Stellarium with Intel GPU

Had the same come up with FreeBSD, they had a separate package for qt or opengl.


I may have to CONSOLE you about your usage of ridiculously easy graphical interfaces...
Look ma, no mouse.
