Hi,

tried H11 today on my MPBro and got strange errors in the GUI.
Text missing or on strange position, like in the scene panel, see pic.

MacBookPro2,2
ATI RadeonX1600
OSX 10.5.6

Already tried to reinstall H11, trashed prefs, but still there.

H10 is working fine, and H11 is also working fine in my iMac6,1/Nvidia GeForce 7300 GT.

Anyone an idea?
Didn't find anything similar in the forum.

Is anybody using H11 on a MBPro with an ATI X1600 an does not have these problems?

Interesting thing is, I got the same problem with Nuke V6.1 64bit, but not with the 32bit Version.

Seems to be a problem with text in the GUI, some text is not visible at all, some is rendered up side down, like the names of the nodes, its up side down and if I move the node in the network view, the text moves in the opposite direction.

edit: in the release notes of Nuke its mentioned that ATI Radeon X1600 on Mac is not supported, lack of OpenGL 2 drivers, so I guess its the same with H11.

I do remember another user having similar issues with the X1600. I've patched Houdini 11 to work with ATI OpenGL 2 cards (specifically the X1000 series), but that's using ATI's driver on Linux and Windows. I unfortunately don't have access to an ATI X1000 series on the Mac, though an ATI 2600XT works without issue.
