Hi,

I finally upgrade my MacPro to Mac OS X 10.8. The configuration is:

Quad-Core Intel Xeon
NVIDIA GeForce GT 120 512MB
Mac OS X 10.8.2
Open-SG git version:
  commit 921843f75a94a45655e93e831d3c72b25e636014
  Date:   Wed Oct 3 10:05:28 2012 -0500

gcc: i686-apple-darwing11-llvm-gcc-4.2

I have the same effects as on the MacBook Pro, but this is a 
single-graphics-card machine.

Any help is very welcome, and needed urgently.

Cheers,
Keyan
