[forwarded from ports@, seemed to belong here] Hi all,
Does anyone know when a thread-safe nvidia-driver will be available? After upgrading to 5.3-RELEASE and KDE-3.3.1, I noticed some newly compiled KDE apps (e.g. kile and skim) core dump at start. The backtraces of the core files show that they are all related with libpthread and libGL (from nvidia-driver). And if I deinstall nvidia-driver and use "nv" driver, all those core-dumping apps work fine (even without recompilation). So I believe recent changes to threading libraries and possibly some ports make some programs trigger the thread-unsafe part of nvidia-driver more often. As the 5.x branch is stablized, and TLS implemented, it should be time to have a thread-safe nvidia-driver available. _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
