I recently installed Debian stable on my old desktop and my trusty old Thinkpad X200, without messing with any driver settings. Both are running the default gnome desktop with the same kernel.
I installed the terminal emulator 'kitty' from the main repository on both machines but it only works on my desktop. The relevant bug report for kitty (https://github.com/kovidgoyal/kitty/issues/2536) tells me that kitty requires OpenGL 3.3, and to check with "glxinfo | grep OpenGL version". On my desktop I get: OpenGL version string: 4.6 (Compatibility Profile) Mesa 22.3.6 On my thinkpad: OpenGL version string: 2.1 Mesa 22.3.6 Is there anything I can do about this using open source drivers? I don't know enough about OpenGL, if it's a software issue or if it's simply that the old intel GPU in the Thinkpad X200 can not work with new OpenGL, while the AMD RX460 in my desktop can?
