[PD] [Pdmtl] ANN: New GLSL mailing list

[Batuhan Bozkurt]

In my experience, it was the driver. I was running Ubuntu Linux on my 
laptop with my Ati Radeon Mobility x1600 and if I tried to use shaders 
in some way, PD would crash(ATI drivers for linux are, bad, closed 
source and open source versions all have their benefits and drawbacks).

If I run OSX on the same machine for example(which would be a 
hackintosh) the glsl shaders work very well.
