latest Xith not working with Radeon 9200 128mb - OGL 1.3.4

[rmdire]

HI Just wondered if anybody else had a similar problem

I downloaded the latest Xith from cvs and tried to run it.

the system froze and the G Card crashed - and tried to report errors to ATI.

tried this a few times - with same result

yet It works fine with OpenGL 1.4.1

any ideas why not backward compatable

Cheers

Xith3D only works with OpenGL 1.4+, we don’t claim backward compatability with OpenGL 1.3.

HI William,

you mention in another post that:

Actually I think you need OpenGL 1.3 or better now.

The crappy Microsoft one won’t work for much at all (not just Xith3D).

ATI or nVidia are your best bets. Even their really old and crap cards still get driver updates and still work with Xith3D.

Hmm I’m not too sure then.

AFAIK, all Radeon and nVidia cards have recent versions of OpenGL - why stuff around with old versions on those cards? My nVidia is a dinosaur and it has the latest version of OpenGL.
