Hello,
I try to run Mesa gears example and I get following error:
though the application runs successfully, but I guess that in future I will have much problems with productivity.Code:freeglut (./gears): Unable to create direct context rendering for window 'Gears' This may hurt performance.
I run Linux CentOS 5 on WMvare 7. Mesa's version is 6.5
Relevant output of lspci -v gives:
Any one have idea? There is driver of vmvare for CentOS?Code:00:0f.0 VGA compatible controller: VMware SVGA II Adapter (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) Subsystem: VMware SVGA II Adapter Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 9 I/O ports at 10d0 [size=16] Memory at d0000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=128M] Memory at d8000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=8M] [virtual] Expansion ROM at 30000000 [disabled] [size=32K] Capabilities: [40] Vendor Specific Information
