I get a runtime error with the CoreGL Demo

I can't reproduce the issue locally, maybe a driver issue?

Thanks for your repsonse.
Its old hardware (Thinkpad T410) running some Ubuntu.
I tried using another shader code from here: https://gist.github.com/kenpower/4327014, but same result. some testing with glmark2 and glmark2-es2 somehow works, though the latter is throwing some errors during its later tests.
But all OpenGL test programs at least show something. The Ubuntu got just some mesa updates today via the normal system update, but that didn't change anything either.

Do you know if a GLArea should generally work with the following opengl version or are there some minimum requirements?

$ glxinfo | grep -i opengl

But apparently its not an gtkd issue.
Can I find out if its trying to use OpenGL or OpenGL ES?
