Thanks for testing, we also tried
http://www.opengl.org/resources/code/samples/redbook/hello.c
and
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~mcfletch/pyopengl-demo/trunk/annotate/head:/PyOpenGL-Demo/redbook/hello.py

which should be identical. The c program displays a white square just
fine but the python script seg faults again on the Intel card.
On another PC with a nvidia card, both programs work fine.
