LWJGL-RC1 and Windows Vista RTM

[stramit]

Hey guys,

I've been checking out my engine on a few different systems over the past few days to check for compatibility, for the most part my adventures have gone quite swimmingly..... that is until I tried on Vista RTM.... This is a nut I just don't know how to crack.

When trying hardware mode I get the following exception:

800 x 600 x 32 @75Hz
Caused by: org.lwjgl.LWJGLException: Could not find a valid pixel format
	at org.lwjgl.opengl.WindowsPeerInfo.nChoosePixelFormat(Native Method)
	at org.lwjgl.opengl.WindowsPeerInfo.choosePixelFormat(WindowsPeerInfo.java:52)
	at org.lwjgl.opengl.WindowsDisplayPeerInfo.initDC(WindowsDisplayPeerInfo.java:54)

	at org.strumpy.engine.framework.renderer.StandardRenderer.initialise(StandardRenderer.java:72)
	... 8 more

Where the resolution listed is the resolution returned as part of "DisplayMode[] modes = Display.getAvailableDisplayModes();"

And when I try software (-Dorg.lwjgl.opengl.Display.allowSoftwareOpenGL=true) I get:

java.lang.IllegalStateException: Function is not supported
	at org.lwjgl.BufferChecks.checkFunctionAddress(BufferChecks.java:67)
	at org.lwjgl.opengl.GL13.glMultiTexCoord3f(GL13.java:304)
        ...ect

as expected as the software renderer does not support this.

The hardware is: Nvidia 7800GT with the latest 64bit graphics drivers (Jan 5'th 07)

Is there anything that can be done? Does lwjgl not work on 64bit hardware? Any debug which I can turn on?

Any assistance would be appreciated amazingly.

Regards.

(as an aside I do seem to recall earlier versions of Vista / lwjgl not having this issue as I used to be able to create Display on this machine using RC2)

Vista RTM does not have hardware OpenGL drivers yet.
The other exception is caused by the app calling a gl13 method without checking for its existance.

There isn't anything to do about it until the driver makers start delivering drivers

Thanks for clearing that up.
