Description:
I'm attempting to work with a relatively large (>150 table) ER diagram in the latest release of MySQL Workbench, and am completely unable to due to the fact that Workbench cannot use OpenGL. Eventually, the system runs out of memory due to software rendering being used instead on such a large diagram. My hardware has support for OpenGL through version 3.2.
Output of the System Info page:
MySQL Workbench SE for Windows version 5.2.19
Cairo Version: 1.8.8
Rendering Mode: OpenGL is not available on this system, INTERNAL ERROR, contact the authors.
OpenGL Driver Version: Not Detected
OS: Microsoft Windows XP Professional Service Pack 3 (build 2600)
CPU: 2x Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU T7300 @ 2.00GHz��m�m�m�R@)�R, 3.5 GiB RAM
Video adapter info:
Adapter type: NVIDIA Quadro FX 360M
Chip Type: Quadro FX 360M
BIOS String: Version 60.86.68.00.18
Video Memory: 524288 KB
In particular, the line "OpenGL is not available on this system, INTERNAL ERROR, contact the authors." is concerning.
Here is some additional information on my system:
Dell Precision M4300 Laptop
Intel Mobile Core 2 Duo T7300 @ 2.00GHz
Intel PM965 chipset
NVIDIA Quadro FX 360M graphics card (running NVIDIA driver version 197.16)
Resolving this issue is of high importance to us, as our entire development staff is currently running the same hardware and suffering from the same problem, which is preventing us from migrating to MySQL Workbench from DBDesigner4. Thanks in advance!
How to repeat:
Apparently repeatable by running MySQL Workbench on any Dell M4300.
