[HOpenGL] Basic GLUT initialization not working

[David Flemström]

Hello all,
I'm starting to use HOpenGL, but have hit a brick wall. Whatever I do, GLUT
always fails to initialize with the following error:

X Error of failed request:  BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)
  Major opcode of failed request:  20 (X_GetProperty)
  Resource id in failed request:  0x1a0003e
  Serial number of failed request:  22
  Current serial number in output stream:  22

I've tried everything I can think of; clearing the ~/.cabal and ~/.ghc dirs
and compiling everything anew, reinstalling the whole Haskell platform, etc.

The system I'm using is running Kubuntu x86_64 10.10 with nVidia drivers,
KDE 4.5.1, kWin with the oxygen engine, on two monitors using nVidia's
Xinerama replacement (forgetting the name). Every other conceivable OpenGL
application, using GLUT, lwjgl, Qt, or GTK, works flawlessly, both compiled
from scratch and from third parties. My GLX info string is at the end of
this email. The program used for testing is trivial:

module Main (main) where
import Graphics.Rendering.OpenGLimport Graphics.UI.GLUT
main = do
  _ <- getArgsAndInitialize -- Initialization fails here
  createWindow "OpenGL Test"
  displayCallback $= clear [ColorBuffer]
  mainLoop

Using either my 32-bit Ubuntu laptop or a 32-bit Arch/KDE system, the
equivalent setup works perfectly and I'm able to run the program.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,
David Flemström
