[ros-users] cturtle's Gazebo Crashing with Ogre error

[Patrick Beeson]

I'm seeing this as well, and I am running Lucid with an NVIDIA card
and the most current NVIDIA driver.  glxinfo and glxgears works fine,
so I'm unsure why OGRE is having problems.  I may try compiling the
source instead of installing pre-compiled binaries using apt.
