Wrong colors with Irrlicht 1.8 on Linux PowerPC

[xeno74]

I have installed Mesa 9.1.3 (Debian Sid). Unfortunately STK (old package) has wrong colors. But the new package with the Irrlicht patch has correct colors.

Ok, extension is there and all shots indicate a general colro handling problem. So please insert the following line into file COpenGLExtensionHandler.cpp, line 372 (directly before MultiTextureExtension = FeatureAvailable[IRR_ARB_multitexture]
FeatureAvailable[IRR_ARB_vertex_array_bgra]=FeatureAvailable[IRR_EXT_vertex_array_bgra]=false;

This should disable the extension and avoid its use. I hope that it works after that...

It works with the new release candidate 1 of STK 0.8.1 again. Could you integrate this solution in Irrlicht, please?

It's a driver bug, and that workaround costs performance and RAM.

edit: It could also be a bug in irr, but still it should be properly solved instead of that workaround.
