Different OpenGL and GLSL profile reported by glxinfo and the daemon engine on Nvidia #477
Description
Quote from #472:
@vloup I noticed something wrong in your GTX 970 logs, that's probably unrelated to the current bug, but that's not normal the game detect GL 3.2 and GLSL 1.50 when the driver announces GL 4.6 and GLSL 4.60:
/gfxinfo … GL_VENDOR: NVIDIA Corporation GL_RENDERER: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970/PCIe/SSE2 GL_VERSION: 3.2.0 NVIDIA 465.31 GL_SHADING_LANGUAGE_VERSION: 1.50 NVIDIA via Cg compiler$ glxinfo … OpenGL vendor string: NVIDIA Corporation OpenGL renderer string: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970/PCIe/SSE2 OpenGL core profile version string: 4.6.0 NVIDIA 465.31 OpenGL core profile shading language version string: 4.60 NVIDIA OpenGL version string: 4.6.0 NVIDIA 465.31 OpenGL shading language version string: 4.60 NVIDIA OpenGL ES profile version string: OpenGL ES 3.2 NVIDIA 465.31 OpenGL ES profile shading language version string: OpenGL ES GLSL ES 3.20
This was noticed on Linux.

This look super weird… would nvidia try to detect the game and show a different profile? What if daemon is not named that way but something else? What if another unknown software they know is named daemon?
@vloup can you do glxgears -info and print the output to see if this one is consistent with glxinfo or daemon?
