PyQt4 OpenGL Overpainting Problem

[Triscuit713]

I am using Feisty and the repo version of PyQt4 to write a program using OpenGL.

I have an Nvidia GeForce3 using the drivers provided in the respository.

The file usr/share/doc/python-qt4-doc/examples/opengl/overpainting.py doesn't run. I get errors saying something about a pointer that shouldn't be changed while running (I'm not in front of my computer to verify the exact error). Does anyone else get this error? Has anyone else figured a way to rid themselves of it?

If anyone could report to me the results of


python usr/share/doc/python-qt4-doc/examples/opengl/overpainting.py

I'd be most appreciative.

You need to do



apt-get install python-opengl python-qt4-dev


to get the appropriate deps.
