Exceed causes a gpf (general protection fault) in dibeng.dll
DISCUSSION
- A gpf (general protection fault) error in dibeng.dll occurs when launching a GL application on a system with an ATI Rage II video card. The dibeng.dll (Device Independent Bitmap Engine) is used by video drivers.
The following is from ATI's web site:
"A small number of older versions of applications written using the Windows 3.x 16-bit model had "hooks" directly into the display driver. You may find that these applications will FAIL when attempting to access our newer 32-bit driver components"
NOTE: This may not be isolated to ATI video drivers.
RESOLUTION
-
Any of the following may resolve this issue:
- Check the website of video card manufacturer and see if there is a known issue with the video drivers and get drivers that will resolve the problem. In some cases, the most current drivers will not fix the problem.
- See if there is an update to the application.
- Go to Exceed, Xconfig:
Screen Definition set the Server Visual mode to pseudo-color
and under Performance try adjusting the drawing settings
ACTION
- For further information please contact Hummingbird Technical support.
