Hi Jason, thanks for your answer. Actually, I just downloaded 2.8.1 rc3, built it and tested my software with those binaries: it solved to problem !!... to some extends... :-(
Actually, i think i'm now facing another ATI specific issue: I can start my app, retrieve image and elevation tiles and built my earth model... except that after some time (and this is also true if I use an simple example like "osgviewer yahoo_aerial.earth") it seems that my ATI just start mixing all the loaded textures! And in fact it seems to be a quite advanced feature as the mixing is progressive !!! (ie. We have a nice fading effect when you move slowing !!) My guess is, it could be that the graphic card memory is filled with textures, and then the ATI driver start using "old" texture objects depending on your distance to your model expecting to create a nice fading effect (assuming what we have here are mipmaped textures ?) (except that osgEarth keeps updating all the textures any way, so "old" textures for a given area are actually replaced by other textures for other areas). Could this make sense ? (or maybe I'm just saying silly things I'm really not an expert when it comes to the low level details like that :-) ). I'm joining a couple of screen capture in a following mail: maybe someone already faced this before.
