GLFW couldn't create an OpenGL window

[francispoulin]

I am running Juliav1.6.6 and have installed GMakie v0.6.0 and when I try running a simple example I get the following error.

But I checked my glxinfo and found there is something.

OpenGL version string: 4.6 (Compatibility Profile) Mesa 22.0.1

Can someone help me figure out how to fix this?

What OS and GPU is this? Anything unusual about the setup, e.g. remote?

I get the same error, and I am also running OpenGL 4.6.

[SimonDanisch]

Have you checked https://github.com/MakieOrg/Makie.jl/tree/master/GLMakie#troubleshooting-opengl as explained in the error?

[KronosTheLate]

I have. I could only find that I was supposed to have an OpenGL 3.3 compatible version of OpenGL installed. I checked, and have 4.6. From there, I am confused - do I have to downgrade? How do I do that? I have never explicitly installed the current driver. Is it then possible to downgrade only for Makie, as I would prefer the newest version otherwise? Or does the fact that 4.6 > 3.3 indicate that there is another problem?

[manentai]

any luck in solving this one? I have a similar issue here
