    Intrepid + PyOpenGL = Seg Fault

    Just upgraded to Kubuntu Intrepid last night with a fresh install, installed the python opengl bindings from the repo, and went off to work on an assignment for a computer graphics class taught in python. Imagine my surprise when the following code produces a seg fault (no, not a python exception, an honest to god seg fault):

    from OpenGL.GL import *
    from OpenGL.GLU import *
    from OpenGL.GLUT import *
    import sys
    glutInit(sys.argv)
    glutInitDisplayMode(GLUT_RGBA | GLUT_DOUBLE | GLUT_DEPTH)

    I've verified that I also get the crash with a copy of PyOpenGL installed myself. I haven't yet tried out the C api yet. The code works fine on a Hardy install, which is why I am posting about it here.

    Using a Sony vgn-fz140e laptop. It's got crap Intel graphics, but compositing *does* work so I know it's not a fundamental driver issue.

    Thanks for any help you can give me.
