[PyOpenGL-Users] Good way to test for OpenGL support?

[Chris B. <chr...@no...>]

Hi folks,

When I try to run my app on a machine with no OpenGL drivers, I get
errors, but they are usually someont g mysterious.

What I'd like to do is check on startup if OPenGL support is there, so
I can give a nice useful error message to my users.

What's a good way to do that? i.e. check for driver support -- I can
handle the eror message.

-Chris
