Text shader rendering artifacts on Intel HD graphics

[GoogleCodeExporter]

The text render is ugly under the default settings (this could be another issue 
report).

What I would like to have is a way to disable the use of VBO's using a command 
line option (which 'fixes' the problem). Now I have to press 'p' for every 
animation.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Gource 0.37 on Windows7 (64-bit)

Please provide any additional information below.

Hi.

Actually you're in luck (sort of), there is an undocumented command line option 
--ffp (fixed function pipeline) that does that.

Could you post some screenshots of the text rendering issues you're seeing? 
Ideally if you pause it and take some screenshots with P toggled on and off 
(you can take TGA screenshots with F12).

Also what video card do you have?

Cheers

Andrew

Great, the --ffp option workaround works.

Attached are the screenshots you requested. The 'default' is as it starts (not 
using the --ffp option of course); after pressing 'p' it turns into 'afterp'.

I'm using a laptop with Intel HD graphics.

It looks like it's a divide by zero error in my shader code. oops.
