> This might be simply a driver limitation. Not all hardware and drivers support multisampling. For example, I'm using OSG on Mesa + Intel HD Graphics which doesn't support multisampling at all.

hi,

i have multi sampling working without optirun, here is my setup:

-Acer Aspire laptop
-Ubuntu 14.04
-Intel 3000 HD Graphics
-Nvidia GT 540 ( 346.82 )

It just doesn't work for some reason if i use optirun defaults(through a virtualgl rendering bridge) to run an osg app with multisample, with a "Error: Not able to create requested visual".
