Hi Marcus,
GL.glCallList(self._grid_compiled_list_id)
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/OpenGL/error.py", line 208, in
glCheckError
baseOperation = baseOperation,
OpenGL.error.GLError: GLError(
err = 1285,
description = 'out of memory',
baseOperation = glCallList,
cArguments = (3L,)
They have an older system, with 2G of memory, but with 12G of swap.
RAM doesn't matter.
This is merely a reflection of buggy OpenGL drivers.
Display Lists are an outdated OpenGL feature that's most likely never
ever tested in any modern driver and so my guess is that they leak
resources when regenerating it and at somepoint they run out of
something ...
Try the patch below. It effectively disables the use of display list
and just issues all the commands every draw ... which for any kind of
modern GPU should really not be a problem.
