|I have the latest cvs update and when I try to use hw rendering with my
|nvidia tnt card I get (for topo.net)
|
|Error: image: display: invalid data colors is of unrecognized type
|
|It works fine with software rendering.
Originally DX only supported float colors. Support for ubyte colors has
crept into many spots in DX, like software rendering, but not hardware
rendering yet as base colors on a field (though ubyte[3] colors are
supported for colors on a texture map).
If this is an image coming in via ReadImage, change the colortype parameter
to float. If not, then a Mark("colors")->Compute("float(a)")->Unmark()
should do the trick.
|Now, if I try the textureMapOpenGL net it works fine with software
|rendering, however, w/ h/w rendering I get
|14890: signal 11 caught
|I am running a patched7.2 system with
|openmotif-2.0.0-1_ICS and the 2802 NVIDIA drivers.
|I noticed a lot of hwrender updates and I want to know if this is now
|broken or is it pilot error??
Works fine on SGI, but that doesn't mean it isn't a DX problem. It could
also be your XFree86 or NVidia setup. From friends, I hear the NVidia
drivers are often finicky and crash prone in Linux. You might try
disabling DRI and see if you get the same. Or, build and check with
software-only Mesa.
