Intel GMA HD. OpenGL driver problem. Geometry shader isn't supported

[idata]

Hello!

We have great hopes for the use of the Core i5 with integrated graphics in our products.

I know, that the Intel GMA HD architecture is based on a unified shader architecture. Which means both vertex, geometry, and pixels shaders run on the same programmable engines or execution units.

However, the geometry shader is not supported by API OpenGL.

I hope to update driver that supports GL_EXT_geometry_shader4 extension soon.
