[Bf-committers] State of the affairs on Os X

[Ben]

lukep,

I get the same error on windows, its related to the graphics hardware. 
That line is where it calls the fragment shader. Unless you have a card 
that supports opengl 2.0, the fragment shader isnt supported by the 
hardware, so the script will fail with that message


btw erwin, if possible it would be nice to have some kind of a failsafe 
in blender that wont try to call the fragment shader if it knows your 
hardware doesnt support it, and instead prints a meaningful error 
message or something

regards,
ben
