I just installed latest ATI catalyst drivers for Radeon and now all textures in my JOGL applet are blocky/poor quality. Additionally, if I use GL_LINEAR_MIPMAP_LINEAR filter, textures get corrupted. If I downgrade back to old drivers, problem is gone.
Using applet viewer everything is fine, so the problem is there only if I use browser to run the applet. Therefore I am not sure should I blame drivers, Java plugin or applet code for this.
Anybody else had similar issue? Any good workarounds?
