Celestia 1.4.1 just installed on a P4 centrino 1.7GHz GeForce FX Go5200
Nebulae appear to be brighter than any star in the sky...

At home on an Athlon 2500+, ATI Radeon 9600SE 256MB all is OK.

Then you installed Selden's outdated add-on, for example, without reporting it here. Please let me know precisely what you have installed beyond the standard distribution. Don't forget, updating add-ons are the responsibility of the add-on creators not that of the Celestia core development team.

Perhaps you simply have to push the '(' key for a while? ;-)

Oh boy!... You are right.
Probabily I installed version 1.4.1 over an existing directory where -once- I installed the Selden's add-on.<br>
Right now I simply erased all the existing Celestia directories and installed again the last version. So, now, I find exciting colorful galaxies with no extra-brighting globular cluster...
