OpenGL is a farking minefield of "oh sorry, that feature is now a hardware dependent feature, and you don't have this weeks hardware, so, well, SEGFAULT". Does the relatively-simple 2D rendering done by GNu Radio graphs really require OpenGL? I"m not an expert, by any means, but those types of graphs (simple line graphs, and even the waterfall) were the sorts of things we were doing over 100Mbit connections to an X-terminal 20 years ago. No OpenGL. _______________________________________________ Discuss-gnuradio mailing list Discuss-gnuradio@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss-gnuradio
