Hi I am trying to use WebGL in Firefox 5 on my machine without dedicated GPU, I just
have the HD Graphic Card included in the i7 2600 (sandybridge) Chip

Am I missing any packages for this to work, or what else do I need?
I want to use http://bodybrowser.googlelabs.com/
Of course I have read
https://wiki.mozilla.org/Blocklisting/Blocked_Graphics_Drivers
where it says that intel-drivers are blocked, however, this info might
be old enough to be outdated...
maybe using firefox 6 or 7?

cheers, Daniel
