freeglut (./Tut18BumpySquare): ERROR: Internal error <FBConfig with necessary capabilities not found> in function fgOpenWindow #153

Description

@dhylands

If I try to run Tut18BumpySquare then I get the following error:

freeglut (./Tut18BumpySquare):  ERROR:  Internal error <FBConfig with necessary capabilities not found> in function fgOpenWindow
X Error of failed request:  BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)
  Major opcode of failed request:  4 (X_DestroyWindow)
  Resource id in failed request:  0x0
  Serial number of failed request:  38
  Current serial number in output stream:  41

If I edit the default function ini BumpySquare.cpp and change:

unsigned int defaults(unsigned int displayMode, int &width, int &height)
{
	g_displayWidth = width;
	g_displayHeight = height;
	return displayMode | GLUT_SRGB;
}

to look like (i.e. remove GLUT_SRGB)

unsigned int defaults(unsigned int displayMode, int &width, int &height)
{
	g_displayWidth = width;
	g_displayHeight = height;
	return displayMode;
}

then the program runs, but I'm not sure whether the effects shown are correct or not.
