My previous experience when using ubuntu was that nvidia proprietary driver is incompatible with osmesa. If simple opengl demo in j ide run ok but not the other opengl demo, then it is likely a osmesa problem. You have to uninstall that driver and try another driver, if you really want J opengl to work. (untested) you may try `glxinfo' in terminal to examine the vendor version string. -- regards, ==================================================== GPG key 1024D/4434BAB3 2008-08-24 gpg --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net --recv-keys 4434BAB3 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm
