Hi there,

i recently accountered a stability problem of my app on some graphics
cards.
The log looks like this on and ATI mobility and Java.1.2.1_03:

**************
An unexpected exception has been detected in native code outside the VM.

I've the impression that they cannot handle geometry with texture
coordinates
(2D) and disabled texture. By the way, why is
the enable flag part of the texture and not of the texture attributes.
Imagine
a texture that is shared by two geometries in different shapes!
This might lead to some inconsistencies or restrictions!!

Anyway, even if all textures in my system are deactivated, the stack
trace runs
through the TextureBin.render() method. Can anybody tell
me what to do and whether this is correct at all. I even tried to clean
the
appearance fully from texture related attributes, but encountered the
same crashes. On a machine with NVidia cards my app runs quite stable.

Cheers,
Karsten
