Just fix it? It was invented with the MesaCVS change from 4.0.x to 5.0. I reported it back to the Mesa Devel list but no solution, yet. MesaCVS 5.1 have it, too. cubemap is fixed with latest source but texdown+'b' and stex3d are still broken. MESA_NO_SSE fix it. > Not that that's the only new problem people have > reported with my Debian packages after the merge. In contrast, the Mesa > 4.x code is generally quite stable in my experience. No real "quality" check have taken place even with 4.x. I saw some bugs (color/texture) with some of my VTK apps/demos on r200. Viewperf-6.1.2 didn't run to end. The VTXFMT errors are still there, too. VTK/bin> ./TaskParallelism TaskParallelism: r200_vtxfmt.c:942: r200FlushVertices: Assertion `vb.context == ctx' failed.
