← Back to context Comment by holowoodman 15 hours ago AMD uses the dynamically linked system libGL.so, usually Mesa. 2 comments holowoodman Reply direwolf20 13 hours ago So you still need dynamic linking to load the right driver for your graphics card. holowoodman 12 hours ago Most stuff like that uses some kind of "icd" mechanism that does 'dlopen' on the vendor-specific parts of the library. Afaik neither OpenGL nor Vulkan nor OpenCL are usable without at least dlopen, if not full dynamic linking.
