ATI Graphic Card Issue

@WarHampster - is the ATI issue resolved in sfml 1.6?  I'm using sfml 1.5 and my users with ATI cards (radeon 4xxx-7xxx) are reporting my program isn't running.

I could also do with knowing whether/when there is likely to be a fix to this, as it has the potential to be a deal breaker with using SFML.

There will of course be a fix, probably soon.

Gah, I thought that the issue was only in SFML 2.0. In that case, add me to the list of people asking for a quick and dirty fix.

Hmm the only thing I can think about is to:
1- add a kind of sf::Init() function
2- move the creation of the global OpenGL contexts (in GlContext.cpp: referenceContext and defaultContext) to this function
3- bind the Init() function in CSFML and SFML.Net
4- call it at startup


Any updates on whether or not this approach will be implemented for a temporary fix?

Progressing very slowly, I have very little time to spend on SFML at the moment.

So when is this issue going to be fixed? I'm participating in a game development competition and I wanted to choose SFML.NET as game engine... but it's freezing every time I want to test my game! Is there any way to get around this? If this doesn't get fixed soon I'm afraid I'm going to have to switch to another game engine  :cry:
