Hello all,

I recently purchased a MAC mini with the following specifications:

MAC OSX version 10.8.5
Graphics Intel HD Graphics 4000 512 MB
MAC mini specifications: 2.3 GHz Intel Core i7
Memory 4 GB 1600 MHZ DDR3

I installed VMD 1.9.1 (I tried both CUDA and NO-CUDA versions of VMD) and
have been having problems with GLSL rendering. The VMD start up message is
below and a figure comparing the VMD GUI window with and without GLSL
rendering is located at:

Any suggestions in this regard would be really helpful.

-Thanks
Vani
