geforce 6800 GT on ubuntu hardy, latest nvidia drivers.
So I’m messing with FBO, and just doing a simple RGBA render to texture. It works if I use GL_TEXTURE_RECTANGLE_ARB but I get a GL_FRAMEBUFFER_UNSUPPORTED_EXT error if I use GL_TEXTURE_2D instead. All necessary extensions seem to be present. I’m using GLEW for the binding points.
Any ideas on why it’s only partially working? Thanks!
oh btw the texture size is 256x256. I don’t think I’m doing anything weird, just trying to get it to work.
Just a guess, but do you create mipmaps?
I think some code could help.
My deferred renderer works with FBOs on a 6600GT on Ubuntu 8.10.
No, no mipmaps. Really simple stuff, I think. Here’s a code sample. Change target to texture rectangle and it works on my machine, otherwise it doesn’t. Crazy!?
GLuint fbo;
GLuint depthbuffer;
GLuint tex;
int texW = 512, texH = 512;
//GLenum target = GL_TEXTURE_RECTANGLE_ARB;
GLenum target = GL_TEXTURE_2D;

{
switch( glCheckFramebufferStatusEXT(GL_FRAMEBUFFER_EXT) )

case GL_FRAMEBUFFER_COMPLETE_EXT:
fprintf(stderr,"framebuffer complete!

break;

it’s strange, because i’m getting the GL_FRAMEBUFFER_UNSUPPORTED_EXT error, indicating there must be some bad combination of size, internal format, etc. Confusing, then, that the texture rectangle works…
ok, i fixed it by adding
glTexParameteri( target, GL_TEXTURE_MIN_FILTER, GL_NEAREST );
glTexParameteri( target, GL_TEXTURE_MAG_FILTER, GL_NEAREST );
glTexParameteri( target, GL_TEXTURE_WRAP_S, GL_CLAMP );
glTexParameteri( target, GL_TEXTURE_WRAP_T, GL_CLAMP );
before the glTexImage2D call.
It must be that the default values for these for GL_TEXTURE_2D are not compatible with FBO’s, and furthermore the default values for GL_TEXTURE_RECTANGLE must be different since mipmaps are handled differently.
And now the solution is recorded for all time in the tubes…
… and it is an incomplete solution 
the default texture filtering is linear mipmap.
mipmap is disabled with texture rectangle.
so you wanted to draw mipmaped texture but without any mipmaps defined.
you should do this to your texture :
glGenerateMipmapEXT(GL_TEXTURE_2D);
some more details here :

Good to know about the generate mipmap function, but for now I don’t care about mipmaps and am just trying to get it to work. If you don’t want mipmaps, you have to use NEAREST or LINEAR or else the texture is invalid. If I add the mipmap call with any of the MIPMAP filters, then it also works.
Thanks!
