Due to a driver problem on my system the glBindBuffer() method causes my JVM to crash with: Native frames: (J=compiled Java code, j=interpreted, Vv=VM code, C=native code) C [atioglxx.dll+0x26a876] j com.jogamp.opengl.impl.gl4.GL4bcImpl.dispatch_glGenBuffers1(ILjava/lang/Object;IZJ)V+0 j com.jogamp.opengl.impl.gl4.GL4bcImpl.glGenBuffers(ILjava/nio/IntBuffer;)V+87 j com.jogamp.opengl.util.awt.TextRenderer$Pipelined_QuadRenderer.<init>(Lcom/jogamp/opengl/util/awt/TextRenderer;)V+69 j com.jogamp.opengl.util.awt.TextRenderer$Glyph.draw3D(FFFF)F+128 j com.jogamp.opengl.util.awt.TextRenderer.internal_draw3D(Ljava/lang/CharSequence;FFFF)V+49 j com.jogamp.opengl.util.awt.TextRenderer.draw3D(Ljava/lang/String;FFFF)V+8 j com.jogamp.opengl.util.awt.TextRenderer.draw(Ljava/lang/String;II)V+8 Setting the useVertexArrays variable to false forces the TextRenderer to use immediate mode for drawing, but some methods still call gl.glBindBuffer causing jvm crashes. These methods use the is15Available method to check for VBO capability and are completely ignoring the useVertexArrays variable. Fix: Changing the return statement of is15Available to "return isExtensionAvailable_GL_VERSION_1_5 && useVertexArrays;".

Hi John, Were you going to submit a patch for this, or did you want me to? Let me know if you need help writing the unit test.
Well the patch is a oneliner and i already set up git and ant to build jogl myself, so i'll try to get the unit test done as well... guess if i get stuck somewhere i know where to ask :>
