Hello Alexander ,

I have seen on several forums that the problem OpenGL-Stellarium is reported several times and with different hardware.
What a pity !
On these materials, other applications that use OpenGL are ok (eg GoogleEarth , Celestia , ... ) only Stellarium is ko!
Can we expect a solution to this problem blocking ?

Indeed, in my example with Ubuntu and chipset Intel, all versions of Stellarium 0.11 and 0.12 are ok until Precise 12.04 LTS with OpenGL 8.0.4 packages.
From the Quantal 12.10 and OpenGL > Version 8.04 package : ko for all versions of Stellarium .

I hope that the problem can be solved with the new Trusty 14.04 LTS release , but today it is not yet the case with the "daily build" Trusty ! (result of glxinfo : direct rendering: Yes OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI Intel ( R) 865G x86/MMX/SSE2 )

Thank you in advance , if you can intervene because Stellarium was (is ?) appreciated !
Good evening.
