No Window :/
« on: January 29, 2010, 12:50:49 pm »
Hello,
i can't see the Game Window, only in the Taskbar it's showed that it's created on Ubuntu.
I'm using GCC and Code::Blocks.
This is the Code:
Code: [Select]
#include <SFML/Graphics.hpp>
#include <iostream>

int main()
{
    // Create the main rendering window
    sf::RenderWindow App(sf::VideoMode(800, 600, 32), "SFML Graphics");

    // Start game loop
    while (App.IsOpened())
    {
        // Process events
        sf::Event Event;
        while (App.GetEvent(Event))
        {
            // Close window : exit
            if (Event.Type == sf::Event::Closed)
                App.Close();
        }

        // Clear the screen (fill it with black color)
        App.Clear();

        // Display window contents on screen
        App.Display();
    }

    return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}


Thank you for your help.

Laurent

Which version of SFML are you using? Do you have any error message in the console?

Yes, there's one Warning in the Console: "warning: GDB: Failed to set controlling terminal: Operation not permitted" and i'm using SFML 1.5

Thanks for your reply

This one is related to the debugger. What if you don't run your program in debug mode?

What about the precompiled samples from the SFML SDK? Did you try to run them?

They don't work(same  error, no window), except the wxwidgets and the qt example.

What is your OS / graphics card? Are your graphics drivers up-to-date?

Operating System is Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala).


Edit: I just updated the Graphics-Driver ;)
Edit 2: I've got an NVIDIA Gefore 7600 GT

Did the driver update change anything?

Have you tried to run glxgears?

The driver update did not change anything, glxgears works without problems.

I made a picture of the problem: The Program is active and in the Taskbar( also in the right corner on the screen panel ) but there's no window ;)

Do you use Compiz, or any other OpenGL-based window manager?

I used Compiz and just tried it without Compiz(deinstalling), now it looks like this
Edit: I don't know about any other Window-Manager ;)

Did you restart your computer after deinstalling Compiz? :D
