sounds like a graphics driver problem then... what hardware/driver do you have on your machine?



That didn't really occur to me, you don't really get graphics driver problems on the Mac because the hardware is so standard. I suppose in something ported in from a PC though... I've got a the last revision of the 20" G5 iMac running Mac OS X 10.4.3, the version with the built in iSight.

    = Machine Name: iMac G5
    = Machine Model: PowerMac12,1
    = CPU Type: PowerPC G5 (3.1)
    = Number Of CPUs: 1

    = L2 Cache (per CPU): 512 KB
    = Memory: 1.5 GB
    = Bus Speed: 700 MHz
    = Boot ROM Version: 5.2.6f1

the graphics card is a ATI Radeon X600 XT

    = Chipset Model: ATY,RV380
    = Type: Display
    = Bus: PCI

    = Device ID: 0x3e50
    = Revision ID: 0x0000
    = ROM Revision: 113-xxxxx-113

the display is,

    = Display Type: LCD
