kivy fatal error due to OpenGL requirement on windows desktop
<p>I have written a windows desktop application using  Python 2.7 and kivy that runs perfectly well from the pyCharm IDE and from the python commandline. After building a distribution package using PyInstaller, running the application from the ..\dist\applicdir\ I get a Kivy Fatal Error: </p>

<p><em>GL:Minimum required OpenGL version (2.0) NOT found!</em></p>

<p>How come? It runs from 2 different angles on the same PC but not from the dist package on the same PC. </p>

<p>Can you explain to me why in the first two situations I do not get the fatal Error?</p>
