To my understanding there are no clear understanding of what causes 
problem. We may end up with hiding problem under rug instead of fixing 
it. It's better to try to understand what's going on first.

I will look into it. Not sooner that saturday though. At any rate I need 
to understand how OpenGL textures work. It look like a good case to 
improve understaning.
