[BUG] SKGLElement gives black screen on Intel integrated graphics

[AhmedEssoubai]

Description

We are trying to use the new SKGLElement WPF element for our project to replace the WinFormsHost solution since it has many issues when integrated in a WPF project. The element works fine on a machine with an Nvidia or AMD graphic card. But, when tested on a machine with integrated Intel graphics only (or the other is disabled), it does not work for all graphics cards. On one of the testing machine that have an Intel HDG 4600 graphics card, we have a newly installed Windows 11 on it.

When using WinFormsHost with SKGLControl, it works just fine.

SKGLElement is based on GLWpfControl(https://github.com/opentk/GLWpfControl). We did try out this control, and it did result in the same issue. There are others faced the same issue: opentk/GLWpfControl#73.

@mattleibow @gmurray81 do you have any suggestions on how to resolve such issue. Is it a problem with the control or the machine it self? if so, why SKGLControl works fine on this machine? Aren't they both use OpenGL?

I have been working around this issue by upgrading or downgrading Intel graphics drivers, it seems to be an issue on Intel's side unfortunately. It's also likely to be an issue that the upstream GlWpfControl would have to fix rather than SkiaSharp.

I had a system with Intel UHD 630 and tested a bunch of driver versions to find the exact version that the problem started happening:
