I recently started getting this error message when running tkmedit: GLUT: Fatal Error in tkmedit.bin: failed to create OpenGL rendering context.
This is with v4.4 on a machine running RHE5. Recent updates to RHE5 may be to blame.
I get this error when running v3.0.5: freeglut (/space/monkeys/1/pubsw/packages/freesurfer/RH4-x86_64-R305/bin/tkmedit.bin): Unable to create direct context rendering for window 'Medit: ' This may hurt performance. X Error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes) Major opcode of failed request: 143 (GLX) Minor opcode of failed request: 5 (X_GLXMakeCurrent) Serial number of failed request: 37 Current serial number in output stream: 37
I see that there have been previous posts about similar errors, but I haven't found any replies with solutions.
tkmedit does work when I use a different user account than the one I log into the xserver with. In that case, I get these messages: NVIDIA: could not open the device file /dev/nvidiactl (Permission denied). freeglut (/space/monkeys/1/pubsw/packages/freesurfer/RH4-x86_64-R305/bin/tkmedit.bin): Unable to create direct context rendering for window 'Medit: ' This may hurt performance.
Does anyone know of a solution for this problem? _________________________________________________________________ Hotmail: Trusted email with powerful SPAM protection. http://clk.atdmt.com/GBL/go/177141665/direct/01/
