Hello all,
I have installed OF1.4 and I have run some of the tutorial cases. I then used paraFoam to view thw results but when I try to create and animation or save a figure paraFoam closes and reports: paraFoam . shockTube /*---------------------------------------------------------------------------*\ | ========= | | | \ / F ield | OpenFOAM: The Open Source CFD Toolbox | | \ / O peration | Version: 1.4 | | \ / A nd | Web: http://www.openfoam.org | | \/ M anipulation | | \*---------------------------------------------------------------------------*/ X Error of failed request: BadLength (poly request too large or internal Xlib length error) Major opcode of failed request: 144 (GLX) Minor opcode of failed request: 28 () Serial number of failed request: 26816 Current serial number in output stream: 26818 Has anyone else experienced this? Any idea how this problem can be fixed. Thanks, Shaun |

Hello. Paraview works OK for me. It seems a problem with your OpenGL libraries.
Are you using accelerated drivers for your video card? Regards, A.

Hi,
Thanks, it's so encouraging to know saving images works at least in a case. I have to stick with the open-source driver to use a dual-head merged framebuffer setup with my old Radeon 9200 video (the merged framebuffer of the vendor-supplied driver doesn't work). The rendering itself works fine but just saving images makes paraFoam crash. Maybe I should consider replacing the video card... Takuya |

Hi,
I had used openFaom 1.3 with no problems, I was able to create and save animations and also images, but since I upgraded to OpenFoam 1.4 I haven't been able to save the images and animations. I will need to look into the OpenGL libraries but it did work with the older version! Shaun |

FLUENT have similar issues with some nVidia cards, if you don't have installed the accelerated nVidia drivers.
If this is the case, your you find a tutorial to install them using RPM's provided by Novell: http://en.opensuse.org/NVIDIA Regards, A.

Greetings everyone!
My Laptop has an Intel GMA chipset (onboard graphics). I think I have found a workaround to this IRRITATING GLXBadContext error. Based on my google search, I tried one of the suggestions from the freedesktop.org thread[1] and it solved my problem instantly. There is no need to recompile paraview and/or parafoam by commenting out the two offscreen rendering lines as discussed elsewhere[2]. The proposed workaround is to add the following line to the 'ServerLayout' section in your /etc/xorg.conf. Please make sure to create a backup before you modify it. For Example: Section "ServerLayout" Option "AIGLX" "false" EndSection FYI: The other way to work around this problem is to disable OpenGL acceleration by using the software cursor [Not recommended!].

I have the same Problem getting the GLXBadContext error.
I'm using OpenFoam1.5 Anyone knows where can I find the /etc/xorg.conf. file to fix the problem as pUI described? Walter |
