Build Identifier: 20100617-1415 The same problems as described in bug #196884 can also be observed on NVidia GeForce 6600GT and Quadro NVS 140M cards with latest drivers on Windows XP SP3. The workaround is to add the following line of code before creating GLCanvas: parent.getDisplay().setData("org.eclipse.swt.internal.win32.useOwnDC", new Boolean(true)); GLCanvas canvas = new GLCanvas(parent, SWT.NO_BACKGROUND, data); It is the same trick that is used inside of GLCanvas for Windows versions 6 and higher. As I understand the source for this trick is the opengl.org and it does not state that the usage of CS_OWNDC flag is required for Windows Vista or higher only. http://www.opengl.org/wiki/Platform_specifics:_Windows#What_should_I_do_before_the_window_is_created.3F Reproducible: Always
