Issues with Third Party Software
X11 Hardware Support
- There is a bug in the 169.xx NVIDIA drivers on certain GeForce 8 series cards that is triggered by the OpenGL paint engine when using QPainter on a QGLWidget to draw paths and polygons. Some other painting operations that end up in the path fallback are affected as well. The bug causes the whole X server to repeatedly hang for several seconds at a time.
- There is an issue with NVIDIA's 9xxx driver series on X11 that causes a crash in cases where there are several QGLContexts and the extended composition modes are used (the composition modes between and including QPainter::CompositionMode_Multiply and QPainter::CompositionMode_Exclusion). This affects the composition mode demo in Qt 4.4, for example. The crash does not occur in newer versions of the drivers.
Mac OS X
- If a sheet is opened for a given window, clicking the title bar of that window will cause it to flash. This behavior has been reported to Apple (bug number 5827676).
