Comment 34 for bug 1160353

it works fine with the patch applied.

i just noticed though that with and without the patch i get a continuous
stream of the same error message on the console.:

Warning [Main]: QGLShader: could not create shader
Warning [Main]: Warning: "" failed to compile!
Warning [Main]: QGLShader: could not create shader

and so on until i quit mixxx.
