GL EXT / Texture Problem

[Antonius]

Hi *,

 

Radu wanted me to inform you about this:

For me, currently, graphics is very broken as most textures are rendered black.

I assume this to be a bug in the Intel-Linux graphics driver as it is fixed when the GL_EXT_texture_compression_s3tc is turned off.

My machine here runs Gentoo, amd64, intel driver 2.11 on a GM45 chip and hopefully this issue will go away with a better driver.

 

Currently my elc is compiled with load_gl_extensions.c changed at line 1340 from

				extensions |= 1 << ext_texture_compression_s3tc;

to

				extensions |= 0 << ext_texture_compression_s3tc;

to suppress usage of the problematic extensions.

 

Best wishes.

Bit fail on Intel's part to mess up implementation of a technology that's 12 years old

Hope you get a driver update soon
