Bug Description

Lucid's current pyopengl truncates 64-bit pointers. I can see this issue using glGetUniformLocation[ARB] function. The second argument is a pointer of GLchar* type and GL library receives it truncated to 32-bit. It prevents me from playing FoFiX (tested on version 3.121) on Ubuntu Lucid.

The problem is very ugly and I wasn't able to track it down completely. Fortunately, upgrading to maverick's python-opengl solves the problem.

I'm not completely sure if this problem is related to OSS drivers (and mesa) or not. If it's a bug in pyopengl (as I suspect) the fix should be backported (as it's fixed in newer version).
