Hi everyone,
In testing my application, I've noticed that LWJGL can't find a pixel format when using Windows Vista with Intel GMA cards (anything less than the GMA 965 that is). I believe the issue is that Intel rushed out its Vista drivers and included nothing but Aero support -- however, this is just a rumor I heard on a forum and I can't anything official from Intel regarding it. I have two questions:
1) Does anyone know the status of Intel OpenGL drivers for Vista?
2) Elias_naur included a fix recently that he said will hopefully allow LWJGL to use Vista's emulated GL formats (emulated via DirectX). Does anyone know if this fix worked? Can Vista utilize the emulated formats?
Thanks!
Raj
I discovered that as of lwjgl 1.1, the issue appears to be fixed (at least on my Intel GMA based laptop). I also made sure to download the latest drivers from Intel's website.
Thanks Elias, glad to see that it's working! I'm going to check this out as well at my local computer store today where they have some Vista/Intel laptops. I'll let everyone know if the emulated mode works.
