Description Fab 2016-04-06 18:37:30 UTC
With nvidia-drivers-361.28, some SOURCE games on steam do not run with this error :
> Could not find required OpenGL entry point 'glGetError'! Either your video
> card is unsupported, or your OpenGL driver needs to be updated.

Long story ⁽¹⁾. Confirmation by nVidia ⁽²⁾.
Last comments on ⁽¹⁾ seems to tell that 364.12 fixed the issue.

No `emerge --info` output, no proper command input/input.

Please take another look and provided that information.

Sorry, emerge --info has nothing to do with this, since the problem pops up with (at least) nvidia binary 361.28. I don't understand what emerge --info would bring you here. There's also no command line output, since the error commes into steam.

I opened this bug to inform you that the current stabilized nvidia-drivers (361.28) is partly broken, if you don't believe me, please read prevoious links 1 and 2.

3 months just to reply me that « emerge --info » is missing, ahah yeah, please leave this bug closed and forget it, I don't have time to waste.
