Hi Rob,

As Dmitri suggested in an offline thread, the best place to start is:
% export J2D_TRACE_LEVEL=4
% java YourApp

And you sent us the following, which was helpful:

I] GLXGC_FindBestVisual: scn=0
[I] GLXGC_InitGLX
[I] OGLFuncs_OpenLibrary
[I] OGLFuncs_InitPlatformFuncs
[I] OGLFuncs_InitBaseFuncs
[I] OGLFuncs_InitExtFuncs
[I] GLXGC_InitGLX: client GLX version=1.4 Sun OpenGL 1.5 patch 120812-18
for Solaris
[I] GLXGC_InitFBConfig: scn=0 vis=0x0
[V]   candidate fbconfigs:
[V]     id=0x27 db=1 alpha=0 depth=32 stencil=8 valid=false (linear
visual)
[E] GLXGC_InitFBConfig: could not find an appropriate fbconfig
[E] GLXGC_FindBestVisual: could not find best visual
[I] GLXGraphicsConfig_getGLXConfigInfo
[I] GLXGC_InitFBConfig: scn=0 vis=0x27
[V]   candidate fbconfigs:
[V]     id=0x27 db=1 alpha=0 depth=32 stencil=8 valid=false (linear
visual)
[E] GLXGC_InitFBConfig: could not find an appropriate fbconfig
[E] GLXGraphicsConfig_getGLXConfigInfo: could not create fbconfig
Could not enable OpenGL pipeline for default config on screen 0

What this shows is only one fbconfig (similar to a visual in OpenGL-
speak) is available, but it's not sufficient for Java2D rendering
because it's a special linear visual that you'll only find on some
Sun hardware.

But more to the point, I've never heard of an XVR-450.  Is that the
right product name?  I'm guessing that we'd be going through Sun's
software OpenGL rasterizer on this board even if you did get it to
work, and it would likely be much slower than our default (X11)
pipeline, so I'm afraid the OGL pipeline wouldn't be of any benefit
on that particular machine.

Thanks,
Chris

Hi,

With the hope that the OpenGL pipeline might help us overcome some the
X-Server performance issues on Solaris 8 on a Sun Blade 2000 with an
XVR-450 video card, I attempted to use the OpenGL pipeline by using
the
-Dsun.java2d.opengl=True flag from the command line. The first time it
complained that I didn't have the right version of GLX, but after
upgrading to OpenGL 1.3 and even 1.5, it gave me a pretty terse error
indicating that it could not open the OpenGL pipeline on display 0
with
the current configuration. Is there a document somewhere that would
help
me debug the configuration settings or does anybody have a
suggestion as
to what might be causing the problem.

Thanks!

Rob
