Jean-Yves,

Thanks for sending that output through, it certainly shows that your machines drivers are all present and look good.

Could you do one more test for me?
This will actually select a profile to use and output which profile it decided to use.

If you download this 7z zip file
http://jogamp.org/deployment/jogamp-current/archive/jogamp-all-platforms.7z
with info here
http://jogamp.org/wiki/index.php/Downloading_and_installing_JOGL#Downloading_the_latest_stable_version

Then extract it any where (winrar and 7zip can both extract it http://www.win-rar.com/download.html?&L=0)


You'll find a test.bat file in the folder jogamp-all-platforms/etc

Please move this file up one to the root folder (jogamp-all-platforms)  
Then double click on it
It will produce a file called test.log next to itself, please reply and attach that file.


This will attempt to create a GL context and will select a profile, you can see this at the end of the log file, something like:

Requested: GLCaps[rgba 8/8/8/0, opaque, accum-rgba 0/0/0/0, dp/st/ms 16/0/0, dbl, mono  , hw, GLProfile[GL4bc/GL4bc.hw], on-scr[.]]
Chosen   : GLCaps[wgl vid 7 arb: rgba 8/8/8/0, opaque, accum-rgba 16/16/16/16, dp/st/ms 24/0/0, dbl, mono  , hw, GLProfile[GL4bc/GL4bc.hw], on-scr[.]]
GL impl. class jogamp.opengl.gl4.GL4bcImpl
GL4ES3 retrieved, impl. class jogamp.opengl.gl4.GL4bcImpl
GL3 retrieved, impl. class jogamp.opengl.gl4.GL4bcImpl


I'm expecting it to have sw in the Chosen line to indicate Jogl is not correctly selecting the (very good) GL4bc driver.

Hopefully this is just a bad mapping system and Jogl can still see your GL4bc driver, so we can try to force it to use it.

If Jogl actually sets Chosen to GL4bc (like in my example) then the issue is slightly different from what I am picturing.

Thanks,
Phil.
