Dear list,
I am trying to render Gem without aliasing but am on an Intel laptop card under Debian, where the card is listed by lspci as VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02)
Sending different FSAA values to the gemwindow does not have any visible effect. Can my card do anti-aliasing or is this reserved to nvidia cards only?
How could I find out if a given card is capable? Would glxinfo be able to tell me?
If not the following improvement would be nice: Could gemwin post an error if the driver can not react to the FSAA message rather than silently dropping it?
Thank you for any ideas or comments! Peter

current Gem implementation of anti-aliasing under linux is nvidia only.

current implementation consist of setting an environment variable. Gem did not know if the hardware will use it or not.
I think there are certainly better way to do full scene anti-aliasing, like using the ARB_multisample extension. but it need to be implemented.
