Description:
MySQL Workbench does not work on a "brandless" computer with built-in SiS 651C VGA chipset. I know this chipset have an OpenGL ICD.

The table's drawing is broken, with the same tables drawed many times like in a tile and I cannot do nothing, not even select the tables.

I also played a bit with "MW" and it reseted my computer several times during this.

Attached is a screenshot of the problem.

Did not tryed on another computer with the same chipset because I don't have another.

How to repeat:
Try to use "MW" in the same computer with the SiS chipset.

Suggested fix:
Debug and fix on more chipsets like this.

Thank you for the bug report. I was unable to repeat on computer
with SIS 650_651_M650_740 on Windows 2000 Server. The only
change I noticed with respect to my another computer DELL 4700
is the change of the layout for to edit the tables since I am using
a screen resolution of 800x600.

Hello Herbert,

I have the following system:
Intel Celeron 3 GHz
1 GB RAM
WinXP SP2
Grafic card driver: SiS 651_661FX_741_760_760GX ..... (think it is an Microsoft driver for the graphics chip)

I also have the problem with the weired grafics. It occurs everytime I open the workbench, but found way to workaround it:

In the options for my graphics card I deactived completely the hardware acceleration (pulled slider to left side edge). With the acceleration turned the app works, but then I got the message "OpenGL error encountered: invalid enumerant (0x500)" in status bar like discribed in bug #19050. The differnce is that the import works fine. I have not tryed the reverse engineering yet.

May be that helps you
