[scilab-Users] JOGL & SciLab Problems

[Tyrel Beede]

No problem... I'm pretty sure it is something unique to my computer.  I
installed it on my co-workers computer just a second ago and he has the same
hardware and software except for a different x58 Mobo and nVidia Graphics
card.  Works perfect for him.  I uninstalled and reinstalled the graphics
card drivers on my PC and it still isn't working.  I tried 5.3 beta, 5.1.1,
5.0.3.  Nothing works.  Scilab 4.1.2 works great but it uses the older
graphics engine to my knowledge.  My computer and the co-workers computer
both have the latest version of Java installed v6 update 22.  I'm kinda
running out of ideas.  I guess I'll be using 4.1.2 for the time being.
