Issue with OpenGL with some AMD Radeon drivers

Hi,

Just in case you have issues enabling OpenGL in LR 6 with an AMD Radeon graphics card:

There have been many cases (myself icluded) of LR 6 not enabling OpenGL with AMD Radeon Graphic cards that meet or exceed LR 6 minimum requirements. You can read more in detail in the Adobe forums:

Apparently the issue occurs with the latest version of the driver and it is solved by installing version 14.4 released on April 2014, available at this link:

I had the issue and installing the driver version 14.4 fixed it in both LR6 and ACR 9.

Didn't work for me with an AMD FirePro v4900 card. I can't enable GPU acceleration.
