Hi, I just installed FC2 as an update over the top of my FC1 (Linux) system. Java+J3D was working fine with FC1. But after the update, my J3D application is failing as follows.
Everything compiles no problem. The app starts up displaying a swing UI, but no J3D at first (correctly). After selecting some stuff, the J3D canvas is shown, and an initial wire-frame is displayed - this works no problem also. After working with the UI some more, some images are supposed to be draped over the wire-frame as J3D textures - here is where it goes haywire. The textures look totally random looking 3d strips of color - actually looks really cool artistically, but not what was expected sadly...
I've tried using JDK 1.5, 1.4.2, J3D 1.3.1 and J3D 1.3.2Alpha. All have the same result.
I also have tried the two available kernel options - 2.6.5-1.358 and the updated 2.6.6-1.435.2.3 - again with same result.
Of course, there are two main changes going from FC1 -> FC2: o change kernel from 2.4 -> 2.6, and o change X server from XFree to Xorg
I'm wondering if there isn't some simple thing I need to do to tweak Xorg to get it to work properly. My computer has an ATI Radeon 7500 (it's a laptop).
This is really a disaster - would anybody else have tried FC2 with positive results?
