second output gl issue on mac mini
Feb 20 2010 | 2:37 am
So i have a patch that runs well and gets nearly 75fps of 1280 on a mac mini. I sent the machine out for an opera to use and they are having an issue when they move the jit.window onto the second output which is a projector. The fps drops to 5-10 unless a system window is on the second output. They are letting the display pref window exist behind the jit.window for now and they have normal framerate. its the new midlevel mac mini with the miniDVI and minidisplay outputs on the nvidia 9400m chip.

I did tell them to place the window into position and take the border off before they started drawing. I also sent them a new version with the @rect set to there system so it places it at runtime with no border and they still had the issue.
