Looks like a 90 degree rotation problem, that will cause the image to
get those diagonal lines (when width != height).  PyOpenGL automatically
sets tight packing (non-aligned) so the problem Dirk described shouldn't
happen.  Try doing a simple rotate on the image before you pass it to
PyOpenGL.

There are dozens of approaches to rendering text, you are using a
version ripped out of OpenGLContext by the look of it.  IIRC the
Pygame-generated font there needs to do a rotate in order to get to
OpenGL-compatible rendering format.

HTH,
Mike
