*It may not work with the standard OpenGL driver. If you have problems (e.g. VEGA crashes displaying big molecules, no alpha-bending, no anti-aliasing), download the old OpenGL32.dll and copy it in the VEGA installation directory.
Not full working:
Graphic card | Version | OS |
Matrox Millennium P650 | 1.5.1 | 2000 SP-4 |
Matrox Millennium P750 | 1.5.1 | XP |
Matrox Parhelia 128 Mb | 1.5.1 | XP |
The Matrox P-series cards aren't fully
compatible with VEGA because they show artifacts when the anti-aliasing is
enabled. The Matrox Developer Support doesn't want to spread the
technical documentation to freeware and shareware software developers. Without
this information, the VEGA team can't fix the problem and it doesn't understand
this Matrox position that offends the factory image.
Important note:
starting from the 1.5.0 release, the Intel OpenGL ICD driver trouble was resolved
and so VEGA can work in true color resolution with Intel 81x and 84x
graphic chips.
