00205: DOUG seg faults with 190.xx series of NVIDIA drivers
Summary: DOUG seg faults with 190.xx series of NVIDIA drivers
Created: 2009–12–02 15:26
Status: Released
Category: Bug
From: frankie
Version: 2.0
Released_In: 2.1
Description:
obviously, NVIDIA has changed something with the 190 series that is causing DOUG to seg fault. Running with the "-verbose" option printed out a section of GL settings and the version field is obviously corrupted suggesting something isn't lining up with the new driver versions. Testing was on 64 bit platforms if that makes a difference.

brad December 10, 2009, at 05:18 PM: Well, I've fixed EDGE so it no longer segfaults with the latest 195 Nvidia drivers. The problem was caused by the extension string to OpenGL getting so large that it was overflowing a 4K buffer I was using to parse it. The buffer is now dynamically allocated to a size that will accommodate any future bloat in the extension string that will occur. The affected files include:
- lib_Linux_FC3/libviewer.a
- lib_Linux_FC3/libviewer_s.so
