Hello,
I hope I picked the correct list for my problem.
I recently installed Debian lenny on a Pentium 4 with Radeon 9800 Pro
graphic chip.
Everything worked fine as usually until I wanted to use a graphics program
which uses OpenGL.
Amongst others, the program accepts the following mouse actions:
Centre-click on a displayed point centres on the point
Ctrl-righ-click moves the scene sideways.
On this installation, the centre-click is responded with "Atom pick
failed" and nothing happens, the Ctrl-right-click results in arbitrary
jumps far, far away from the current view point and a distortion of the
view.
Today I noticed the same behaviour on my laptop where it definitely worked
until recently (unfortunately I don't know, HOW recently, otherwise I
would check what has been updated since).
Both machines use the ATI prorietry driver, but I also tried the ati and
radeon drivers.
I am quite sure it is a software error related to the (Debian) system
rather than the program because the problem persists if I open the program
through an ssh tunnel from another machine but disappears when done the
other way round (started on another machine opened on mine).
I would appreciate any hints and ideas how I could trace back the problem
and solve it.
Cheers, Tim
