Hi Malte,

that's right, Intel GMA 950 provides some API support (including openGL 1.4).
GEM runs without any problems.
It's still strange that I can't enable GL_Multisampling or any kind of smoothing
in GEM on the Macbook ---> and anti-aliasing with [text2d] works.
Anyone knows if there's the same logic behind text- and polygon-smoothing?

[FSAA $1( just seems to work with nVidia-gfx-cards...

I'd be happy about any hints!
