<p>Hey, </p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I'm trying to get OpenGL 3.2 on an OpenVZ VPS running Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS without graphics hardware acceleration. I was about to give up until I read about OpenSWR and it's integration into Mesa. So I tried building the latest version of mesa from freedesktop
git with the recommended openswr configuration options. <span style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">
At this point I'm not even sure if the AVX instruction set is fully functioning on the VPS because I don't know how to check. </span>OpenGL Version never went above 3.0. It doesn't seem like I activated SWR at all.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Assuming that AVX is functioning correctly what else could I try? Thanks.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>sudo ./configure --with-gallium-drivers=swrast,swr --prefix=$HOME/mesa<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>This is the glxinfo after a quick 'make install':</p>
