Everytime I run SL app I get a white window with the familiar red, yellow, green buttons on top and nothin else. I have to close via activity monitor as it doesn't respond to quittin any other way.

Is there anythin I can use to maybe find out whats failin debug mode etc?

Thanks

Edit: Managed to get a log

Edit2: I tried to use OpenMark 1.60 to test if it was SL speciffic and that didn't render either so I'm definately facing problems with my OpenGL

Well I did some digging, 5 days worth on and off infact

It seems as though my problem with OpenGL programs is known as the dreaded "Black Window Syndrome" but all the fixes seem to be for the programming side so looks like something aint right with my drivers somewhere.

I'd say thanks for your help but.....

Have you tried any of the alternative viewers?

The cool viewer: http://sldev.free.fr/ is my general medicine against such problems. Though it does not solve ALL problems....

I'm going to ask a stupid question: did you uninstall and reinstall the app?
