Why I get a Full_Black_Screen?

One day , I compile a OPENGL example on ubuntu9.10
“The Red Book/aargb.c”

code:

#include <GL/glut.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>

static float rotAngle = 0.;

/* Initialize antialiasing for RGBA mode, including alpha

  • blending, hint, and line width. Print out implementation
  • specific info on line width granularity and width.
    */
    void init(void)
    {
    GLfloat values[2];
    glGetFloatv (GL_LINE_WIDTH_GRANULARITY, values);
    printf ("GL_LINE_WIDTH_GRANULARITY value is %3.1f
    ", values[0]);

glGetFloatv (GL_LINE_WIDTH_RANGE, values);
printf ("GL_LINE_WIDTH_RANGE values are %3.1f %3.1f
",
values[0], values[1]);

glEnable (GL_LINE_SMOOTH);
glEnable (GL_BLEND);
glBlendFunc (GL_SRC_ALPHA, GL_ONE_MINUS_SRC_ALPHA);
glHint (GL_LINE_SMOOTH_HINT, GL_DONT_CARE);
glLineWidth (1.5);

glClearColor(0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0);
}

/* Draw 2 diagonal lines to form an X
*/
void display(void)
{
glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT);

glColor3f (0.0, 1.0, 0.0);
glPushMatrix();
glRotatef(-rotAngle, 0.0, 0.0, 0.1);
glBegin (GL_LINES);
glVertex2f (-0.5, 0.5);
glVertex2f (0.5, -0.5);
glEnd ();
glPopMatrix();

glColor3f (0.0, 0.0, 1.0);
glPushMatrix();
glRotatef(rotAngle, 0.0, 0.0, 0.1);
glBegin (GL_LINES);
glVertex2f (0.5, 0.5);
glVertex2f (-0.5, -0.5);
glEnd ();
glPopMatrix();

glFlush();
}

void reshape(int w, int h)
{
glViewport(0, 0, w, h);
glMatrixMode(GL_PROJECTION);
glLoadIdentity();
if (w <= h)
gluOrtho2D (-1.0, 1.0,
-1.0*(GLfloat)h/(GLfloat)w, 1.0*(GLfloat)h/(GLfloat)w);
else
gluOrtho2D (-1.0*(GLfloat)w/(GLfloat)h,
1.0*(GLfloat)w/(GLfloat)h, -1.0, 1.0);
glMatrixMode(GL_MODELVIEW);
glLoadIdentity();
}

void keyboard(unsigned char key, int x, int y)
{
switch (key) {
case ‘r’:
case ‘R’:
rotAngle += 20.;
if (rotAngle >= 360.) rotAngle = 0.;
glutPostRedisplay();
break;
case 27: /* Escape Key */
exit(0);
break;
default:
break;
}
}

/* Main Loop

  • Open window with initial window size, title bar,
  • RGBA display mode, and handle input events.
    /
    int main(int argc, char
    * argv)
    {
    glutInit(&argc, argv);
    glutInitDisplayMode (GLUT_SINGLE | GLUT_RGB);
    glutInitWindowSize (200, 200);
    glutCreateWindow (argv[0]);
    init();
    glutReshapeFunc (reshape);
    glutKeyboardFunc (keyboard);
    glutDisplayFunc (display);
    glutMainLoop();
    return 0;
    }

And I use this command: gcc -o test -lglut aargb.c

then run ./test

I got a FullScreen, And is black.
Then I test other opengl example, if who use “GLUT_DOUBLE” Display Mode, they will display correctly.

What is the reason?

Single buffered rendering is mostly deprecated, especially when a compositing desktop is used. Try disabling compiz/fusion, maybe it will make single buffered work.
Or replace the glFlush() with a glFinish(). Flush should be enough, but who knows…

What is your video hardware ?
And video driver version ?

I don’t think it’s about hardware, and driver version,
because I run it correctly on windows XP sp2,

shapphire radeon X300SE 128MB [ATI]

OK , I just try to compile aargb.c on the ubuntu10.04
it running correctly…

:stuck_out_tongue:

Driver difference, as I said.
