I'm running the nehe tutorial JOGL code through eclipse and I'm having a weird problem. The programs run fine as long as I don't put my mouse over the window. As soon as I put my mouse over the window it freezes. You can't close it or move it or resize it and it's unresponsive. I've tested with lesson04 and lesson05 and both have the same result. Both froze as soon as my mouse came over the window. If anyone could point me in the direction to look in to remedy this, I'd be thankful. ~Wave

I'm guessing you're using an ATI card? You may be able to fix it by putting "-JOGL_SINGLE_THREADED_WORKAROUND=true" on the command line, eg.

java MyJoglTest -JOGL_SINGLE_THREADED_WORKAROUND=true

Also, I'd recommend LWJGL instead of JOGL, but I guess that's a different debate...

Yes I am using an ATI card!

Also I was wondering why you would go with LWJGL over JOGL. I'm at the start of my project and am very open to suggestions. I'd like to hear your opinion.

Thanks!
