I've gone through your code and tried running it. I don't think I'm being
able to reproduce the problem you describe.
By default I get a red quad floating around (the one from the Display List)
and, upon pressing "D", a white quad appears. The red quad always stays red.
Maybe I'm not understanding the problem completely. Should any of the quads
change color when toggling the white one?
I'm running the source file without any changes, so (I think) I'm going
through steps 1,2,3,4 in order.
This is my current config:
>>> glGetString(GL_VERSION)
'2.1 NVIDIA-1.6.36'
>>> glGetString(GL_RENDERER)
'NVIDIA GeForce 9400M OpenGL Engine'
