Andreas, Thanks for compiling & testing the current open-source code! I think this is a driver issue. Some card/driver combinations object to being fed geometry too fast in immediate mode. Please See if one or both of the following settings helps:

When I open any old pdb file (eg. fetch 1ubq), the protein is displayed as if irradiated with a free-electron laser (https://fileexchange.imperial.ac.uk/files/5b706c5efa/lines.png). The cartoon (https://fileexchange.imperial.ac.uk/files/0dd1d6af73/cartoon.png) or any other representation is fine, except ribbon, which displays nothing. Is that a bug in PyMOL or in my graphics driver? I'm running Fedora 7 with the current ATI driver obtained from the livna repository. The graphics card is a dusty FireGL T2. Thanks. Andreas
