Hej, When exporting a image from rgl, the following error is encountered:> rgl.postscript('testing.pdf', fmt="pdf")RGL: ERROR: can't bind glx context to window RGL: ERROR: can't bind glx context to window Warning messages: 1: X11 protocol error: GLXBadContextState 2: X11 protocol error: GLXBadContextState The pdf file is created and is readable, but all the labels are gone.

but not on OpenSuSE-10.1.

library(rgl)
example(spheres3d)
rgl.postscript("spheres.eps", fmt="eps")
R> source("rgl.postscript.r")
