This has been annoying me for some time and i cant seam to get any help. I have up loaded a youtube link in HD to show you the issue,
my hardware is as follows
Model Name: Mac Pro
Model Identifier: MacPro4,1
Processor Name: Quad-Core Intel Xeon
Processor Speed: 2.26 GHz
Number Of Processors: 2
Total Number Of Cores: 8
L2 Cache (per core): 256 KB

Im running snow leopard and my graphics is the standard Nvidia GT 120.

Id appreciate any help.
Thank you

Michael

Yeah this problem is so annoying. I installed Mubox on a brand new mac mini running leopard and have the same problem . I also installing on a friends old macbook pro running tiger but it seams to run fine under tiger, So its a problem with leopard that Autodesk needs to address soon. Because im running out of patience : ) . Im glad that im not the only person with this issue. Thanks for your comment.

So it seems to be graphics driver related with 10.5+
Till 10.6.2 there was also a graphics issue with Maya 2010, but it seems to be fixed with the latest OSX update.

Would be interesting if it’s only on Macs with NVidia graphics!

Lets hope there is a fix soon. Don’t particularly want to buy a ATI graphics card. Il let you know if i find a solution.
Thanks

I’m glad your issue got solved!

But seriously… why do you guys bother with 3D on a mac :)
DTP, Photoshop, painter, video processing, music authoring! mac is awesome!

But when it comes to 3D…

Yeah i think your right i originally used my mac for graphic and webdesign and then started to do 3D, yeah it can be annoying when you cant get some specific software thats why i have a dual boot with windows.
