[Haskell-cafe] Re: ghc-6.11 + OpenGL/GLUT crashes on WinXP

[Mark Wassell]

Hi,

Works here:

Windows XP SP 3
ghc-6.10.20081007
glut32 from http://www.xmission.com/~nate/glut.html

Don't know if this will help:

DLLS loaded

Some of the versions

opengl32.dll OpenGL DLL (Microsoft) Version 5.01.2600.5512
glu32.dll OpenGL Utility Library DLL (Microsoft) Version 5.01.2600.5512
ddraw.dll - DirectDraw (Microsoft) 5.03.2600.5512
dciman32.dll - DCI Manage (Microsft) 5.01.2600.5512.
glut32 had no version info.

DirectX 9.0c (always thought OpenGL and DirectX were orthogonal but 
ddraw.dll  is being used).
