Hi all, First time here. I have a problem running my openGL programs with freeglut. I installed=20 Fedora Core 4 on my PC and the downloaded and complied freeglut2.4 from=20 source and when I attempt to run a freeglut program I get these two error= =20 messages "Unable to create direct render context for <window-title> this might hurt= =20 performance" "Unable to create cursor" When I use single buffer mode the above errors occur but the window gets=20 created and when I click on the window closes down. If I use double buffer= =20 mode then the rendering window pops up but it doesn't display anything and = a=20 part of the background window covered by my rendering window shows up. Is this error due to improper driver for my graphics card ? I have a nvidia= =20 GeForce MX/MX 400 card. --=20 Bye, Murali visit my blog @ http://www.mercurialjottings.blogspot.com visit my pic log @ http://www.muralispiclog.blogspot.com visit my homepage @ www.dpo.uab.edu/~murali <http://www.dpo.uab.edu/~murali= > |

Trying to run the demos I get the following error freeglut (lt-lorenz): Unable to create direct context rendering for window= =20 'Lorenz Attractor' but the program does not crash and I do see stuff moving on the window. Once again let me mention I have Fedora Core 4 and nvidia GeForce MX/MX 400= =20 card. Thanks for your help, Murali.

Actually the error was because the demos as well as my programs were linkin= g=20 to the glut library rather than freeglut's libglut. Everything works fine= =20 now. Thanks for your help Murali.

Everything works fine Weird that GLUT didn't get you direct-rendering. -- "I probably don't know what I'm talking about." http://www.olib.org/~rkr/ |
