Hi Serge,
Merci pour votre réponse.
Unfortunately, there's not such a "glxinfo" command on my W7 system. But I
checked
the info about the graphics card (an AMD HD 6670) and apparently OpenGL is there
and active (version 6.14.10.12874). I even updated the driver -- to no avail.
Scilab
5.5.0 keeps crashing.
This is frustrating because I don't remember it ever happening before with
Scilab or
any other application.
I don't have to use Scilab, but I like it and would keep it if I could. But,
much to my
regret, it seems that I either go back to a previous Scilab version or quit
Scilab
altogether.
Regards,
Fausto
