           Summary: Broken rendering in kpovmodeler when DRI disabled (using
                    GLX only)
           Product: Mesa
           Version: 6.5
          Platform: Other
               URL: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=393150
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: GLX
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


This bug has been reported to the Debian BTS about 6 months ago by Alexandre
Denis. It still apply to Mesa 6.5.2 and it seems it was already there in 6.4.2
(I couldn't test earlier mesa releases).

If you disable DRI on your X server, either by removing the corresponding DRI
drivers, or by disabling dri explicitely in Xorg.conf, kpovmodeler rendering is
completely broken.

To reproduce, start a second X server (so that DRI is disabled), open
kpovmodeler and load
/usr/share/apps/kpovmodeler/examples/scenes/advanced/ants.kpm (this is the path
in Debian, it might need to be adapted for other distribs). There are 4 black
rectangles in kpovmodeler's window. Each rectangle displays a wired rendering
of a ant, here. But almost nothing is actually displayed.

If DRI is enabled, the rendering is fine. If software rasterizer libraries are
installed instead of DRI/GLX, rendering is also fine (according to the reporter
of the Debian bug, I did not test myself). So this looks completely specific to
GLX, from what I understand in how GLX/DRI/soft-rasterize are organized.

thanks,
Brice
