[wxPython] wxPython 2.3.2 (Linux) glcanvas

I changed PyOpenGL 2.1.1 to PyOpenGL 1.5.7 (__version__=1.5.6b1),
but wxGLCanvas program in demo.py shows only noisy (OpenGL) window!
And wxPython 2.3.1 works okay.

And wxGTK-2.3.2/samples/opengl/cube/cube.cpp works okay.

What is the difference between wxPython-2.3.2(wxGLCanvas.py) and
wxGTK-2.3.2+cube.cpp?

The difference is not in glcanvas.cpp or glcanvas.py.
I made a test program without glcanvas, but it doesn't works, too.
Perhaps the difference is in wxFrame, wxApp, or other initialization.

wxPython-2.3.2(Linux + nVIDIA OpenGL) -> No
wxGTK-2.3.2 only (Linux + nVIDIA OpenGL) -> OK
wxPython-2.3.1(Linux + nVIDIA OpenGL) -> OK
wxPython-2.3.2(Windows2000Pro + nVIDIA card) -> OK
wxPython-2.3.1(Windows2000Pro + nVIDIA card) -> OK
wxPython-2.3.2-glcanvas+wxGTK-2.3.2(Linux + nVIDIA OpenGL) -> No

OK : OpenGL functions works perfect.

No : All OpenGL functions seem to do nothing.
     The GLCanvas window is filled with random stripes.

CPU is Pentium 4 (1.7GHz).
OS is Turbo Linux 7.0 WS.
Graphics chip is Quadro2 Pro(nVIDIA). GloriaIII. AGP-x1-x4 card.
Driver for Linux is
NVIDIA_GLX-1.0-1541.i386.rpm
NVIDIA_kernel-1.0-1541.src.rpm
downloaded from nVIDIA's WWW page.

What is the test program? Does the wxPython demo also fail? Do you use the
RPMs or build yourself? If RPMs then please uninstall try to build wxGTK
and wxPython yourself, configuring wxGTK with --enable-debug and see if
there is any assert or failure message that can help.
