This card from your link is supporting OpenGL 4.1 and newest in beta drivers is 4.4, in official drivers is 4.3 so this may be an issue... We better wait... We want something for longer time to work...

Sorry I made a mistake - here is the link:

http://forums.guru3d.com/showthread.php?t=380445

it looks like all the cards on the list are good to go when it comes to new OpenGL versions. I do think though we should buy something decent like 650ti which isnt monster but will surely do.

So either

http://www.paradigit.nl/product/zpr-08o ... fault.aspx

or
http://www.paradigit.nl/product/zpr-08o ... fault.aspx

Will be fine, right? If the first link works, the fund raiser has brought in enough to buy it :-)

Thank YOU! For all your hard work and damn good piece of software. Let us know about how it goes when card arrives. I dont expect everything to be fixed in split second - just like to know whats up ;) Have a nice dia de los muertos :D

Ha! On Wednesday, the card arrived. Then I discovered that it needs a six pin pcie plug... Which wasn't available on primary desktop's power supply. Nor on my secondary desktop, which, in any case, refused to switch on.

Some googling, some help on irc... I needed a molex->pcie converter cable. But... No molex connectors either, the Lenovo E31 doesn't have those. But! I could disconnect my dvd driver, then I had two sata connectors free, and now I've got a connector converter for those... And I'm now trying to install the right driver.

Let's see what happens :-)

Okay, I fixed the issue. Or rather, worked around it, because it turns out to be a bug in Qt...

New packages:

http://heap.kogmbh.net/downloads/krita_x86_2.7.8.26.msi

http://heap.kogmbh.net/downloads/krita_x86_2.7.8.26.msi

These packages contain the high quality opengl scaling (useful for downscaling especially) and the wacom work.

Great - however both links seems to be to 32 bit version..?

This one is for 64 bits, right?
http://heap.kogmbh.net/downloads/krita_x64_2.7.8.26.msi


BTW - how fast you fixed it is mind blowing man, seriously ;)
Yesterday I saw news about new Mudbox service pack - not using it but I like to know whats happening. Autodesk fixed TWO issues, both with Mac and both not really related to program itself but rather to OS. They have listed 24 (sic!) KNOWN issues with some workarounds and they called it a "service PACK" :D Seriously - it is so great to see dedication as yours in Open Source world when some of the "big guys" are nothing more but money sucking JOKE.
I hope I can figured out something to help Krita in the future - great software man. Now - lets test it a bit before work...

Looks like is working fine! VERY usable version of Krita - I dont see major problems, OpenGL helps A LOT.
I just didnt found solution for this right-mouse-button/middle-mouse-button switched on wacom stylus. But this isnt show stopper at all.

We will probably have to add more config gui for wacom options...

Looks like I made a mistake nonetheless -- the checkers background is broken. New builds coming up...
