I have encountered a problem using mipmaps in our software running on
a Ati 9200 Mobility card.
To restrain to the difference i tested mipmaps with the "mipmap.c"
file from the red book. It is the
example where every mipmap level is painted with another color.

I have inserted these too lines to restrict the levels used for
rendering:

glTexParameterf(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_MAX_LOD, 1000.0);
glTexParameterf(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_MIN_LOD, 0.0);

including glext.h (hope this isnt the error)

On a GeForce 4 i get the appropriate frame with different mipmap
levels greater than 0.
In contrast the ati mobility card doesnt show anything (just
background color).
If i am changing the parameter GL_TEXTURE_MIN_LOD to -1000 (the
default value) both cards show the same results.

Is the value 0.0 for GL_TEXTURE_MIN_LOD illegal, so that i am doing
something wrong or is there another
reason for the different behaviour ?


Full example of mipmap with the two additional lines:

#include "lib/GL/glut.h"
#include "lib/GL/glext.h"
#include stdlib.h

GLubyte mipmapImage8[8][8][4];
GLubyte mipmapImage4[4][4][4];
GLubyte mipmapImage2[2][2][4];
GLubyte mipmapImage1[1][1][4];
