Constellation lines not shown

Asked by Roostam Abdjukhanov

Hi!
I`m using Stellarium ver. 0.10.5 with russian interface and found a problem - it doesn`t show constellation lines, when i press "c" or "lines" button in menu. Can this problem be fixed? Or the problem may be caused by translation? OS is WinVista HP.
Thanks a lot!
Roo

This is not a translation problem. What graphics card and drivers are you using?

I`m using notebook, Fujitsu Siemens Amilo Xi 3650 with two graphics cards - Mobile Intel(R) 4 Series Express Chipset Family, driver is NVIDIA 7.15.11.7537, this one is integrated and doesn`t work properly, second - NVIDIA GeForce 9600M GT is OK, working as expected :) I usually use NVIDIA card only for 3D modelling, for all other purposes i use Intel card.
Thanks in advance!

If you run stellarium on the link "Stellarium (no OpenGL2)", then the correct line is drawn on a map of the constellations via Intel card?

Sorry, i didn`t mention it - i tried No OpenGL2 too, all the same - pictures and names OK, but no lines.
Thanks!

Where can i find it? In c:\Program Files\Stellarium there`s no such file. May be i have to turn on logging somehow?
Thanks!

Margaret: most of the time, rendering glitches like this are because of bad video drivers. Sometimes updating them helps. Sometimes running with safe mode helps (that's the "No OpenGL2" link under windows, or launching with the --safe-mode option). Without more information about your system it hard to tell. Even with more information it is hard to tell.

Thanks a lot, i found Win7 drivers, "Intel graphics accelerator driver", problem was solved for Intel card, but now i can`t switch between cards, NVIDIA doesn`t work :))))) Looking for updates :)
Thanks!
