[12.00-1380] AMD Radeon HD 6490M in MacBook Pro too old for Opera?!
I have early 2011 MacBook Pro and installed Opera Next 12.00-1380 to test new build. This build blocks my video card "Blocked device: Old ATI cards trigger too many bugs"
I understand that it is not so fast like NVidia GTX 580, but I see good FPS with several 3d games, 3D editors and WebGL with low CPU usage.
I suspect that videocards in all MacBook Pro are marked as 'Old ATI cards'. It's not good.
My OS Mac OS X Lion 10.7.3 with latest patches.

Thats the problem. Minimum GL version required is 2.1. Since u have a 6 series GPU, updated your gpu drivers to the latest version for AMD site, and u should be able to get,
GL_SHADING_LANGUAGE_VERSION 4.2 and Opera will work fine.

No i did nt!
But here:
http://www.amd.com/us/products/notebook/graphics/amd-radeon-6000m/amd-radeon-6400m/pages/amd-radeon-6400m.aspx#2
it shows support for OpenGL 4.1 support. Dont know why r u stuck with 1.20, anyway Some Mac guy might help u!
