Problems with VBO

We have a problem when using VBO with Intel 82865G.

The question to isExtensionAvailable(“GL_ARB_vertex_buffer_object”); return true, but we get an GLException when we try to generate the buffers saying: javax.media.opengl.GLException: javax.media.opengl.GLException: Method “glGenBuffers” not available

I think we have had this issue with ATI Xpress200 cards aswell ? Any idea ?

Is the card lying or is it jogl ?

It’s a bug in your code. The presence of GL_ARB_vertex_buffer_object guarantees the availability only of glGenBuffersARB. If isExtensionAvailable(“GL_VERSION_1_5”) returns true then you can call glGenBuffers.
