No Details in opengl info

When I run the opengl info command in MATLAB Terminal, I get the following output:
MATLAB has experienced a low-level graphics error, and may not have drawn correctly.
Read about what you can do to prevent this issue at Resolving Low-Level Graphics Issues then restart MATLAB.

I tried several solution already available online but nothing worked. I am running MATLAB R2023b on Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon 8th Gen with Linux Mint 21.3 Cinnamon and inbuilt Intel UHD graphics.
Any help in this reagrd is appreciated. Thanks a lot in advance.

I encountered a similar issue with MATLAB R2023b, updating MATLAB to latest version helped me solve the issue.
Hi Nithin,
Thanks for your comment.
I already updated my MATLAB. As per my latest conversation with an executive from Mathworks team, the temporary solution would be to start matlab with
matlab -nopengl
.

Hi Vikash,
The first check in these cases to ensure your Intel graphics drivers are up to date as this may hinder MATLAB's ability to interface with OpenGL.
Also check the OpenGL Libraries are correctly installed on your linux system, please refer to this MATLAB answers thread for the same: https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/241850-matlab-failing-to-find-hardware-opengl#answer_263092.
In general to know about solutions on low level graphic issues, have a go through of https://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/creating_plots/resolving-low-level-graphics-issues.html
Hope this helps.
