Thank you Julien,


Okay, so then I need to assume this can happen on other graphic cards as well, right? Or is this very odd?

Accordign to the screenshot with output, the call

getMaxFixedFunc(true)

does return GL4bc so that is what confuses me the most...

Regarding implementation for all machines of all my customers, would i be best of to simple check each profile that is compatible for my commands from best to worst profile and stop with the profile that complies with:

glProfile.isGL2()

?
Or should I simply remove that call ?

I am sure that other developers would have this issue as well so isn't there some general OpenGL initialization code for JOGL beside these

getMaxFixedFunc(true) calls ?

It does bring up the question how to deal with different GPUs in a single machine as well. But I will open a separate topic for that.
