[Stellarium-pubdevel] Differences between -qt5 and -qt4 versions, also on FreeBSD upgrade

2014-11-19 Thread Graham Bradley
My system is AMD HD7660D processor, integrated graphics processor.  This week I updated from FreeBSD 10.0-RELEASE using vesa driver to 10.1-RELEASE using the updated radeon driver, and vt console. Behaviour with stellarium has changed.  Has anyone else come across this? When I ran stellarium 0.

So, you have spotted a difference? 1) Moving from Qt4 to Qt5 brought a huge change. 2) It is our favorite FAQ since 0.13.0 is out: https://answers.launchpad.net/stellarium/+faq/2570 3) I am surprised the Radeon driver for this modern iGP does not like the GLSL1.3 planet shaders. As always,

thanks for the idea, I have run with FreeBSD-10.1 and latest xorg and vt: In each case I switched off atmospherics and horizon from the view. 1. stellarium 0.12.4 seems to show everything, and zooms in nicely then installed back the later pkg to try that: 2. stellarium 0.13.1 runs, can zoom in fine

Aha!I may be answering my own question here, but an earlier message referred to bug #1383046, and it does look consistent with my issue. So I have tried the suggested: stellarium --dump-opengl-details On the 0.13.1 version with FreeBSD and radeon driver and the output file is attached. I notice t

Hi! The message on glProgramParameteriEXT may not be completely bad. In the last half year we are hunting down Qt5-/OpenGL2+-related errors on various graphics systems, and this was one of the possible issues. However your logfile is free from relevant messages. But I don't understand your last m

thanks Georg to clarify, for 0.13.1, the moon and planets appear as textured spheres only when they exceed a pixel in size.  In the startup screen, with a 60deg field of view, only sun and moon show any image.  Their legends are present, as are the brighter stars and planets.  Given enough zoom,
