Well i installed latest ATI driver (ATI vendor's) and suddenly the graphics works as well, all OSG application work now without any restriction. /adegli 2007/2/24, Jan Ciger <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: On Saturday 24 February 2007, Robert Osfield wrote: > This all makes me curious how much of hit OSX has with its 3D window > manager, and what we might see with new Linux 3D window managers.

Re: [osg-users] Windows Vista
Hi All, As part of the latest OpenGL newletter there is an article about OpenGL oin MS Vista: http://www.opengl.org/pipeline/article/vol003_7/ Upshot seems to be that OpenGL will work fine, but expect performance to be down, and memory to be in shorter supply as the window manager gobbles up extra memory. There are few items that break certain apps too. This all makes me curious how much of hit OSX has with its 3D window manager, and what we might see with new Linux 3D window managers.

Re: [osg-users] Windows Vista
Hi, I had problems with Vistan on a MacBook pro, svn compiled fine with VS2005(sp1 + patch), but when the viewer was realized, all I got was a black screen, and the machine froze (looks like the graphics froze). I blame ATI and their drivers (using the latest mobility drivers from the ati site) hardware: Intel Core Duo ati X1600 mobile 128mb 1.5 Gb ram Anybody has any experience with vista & ati ?
