Bug#119474: Bug #119474 - xserver-xfree86: [nv] server sometimes crashes, sometimes hangs when xscreensaver uses GL screenhacks on GeForce2 MX rev 161

2005-02-15 Thread browaeys . alban
can someone close this report. I have been able to somewhat reproduce
this problem . The nvidia-glx driver is suppose to dpkg-divert
the GLcore (GLcore.a in extensions) components by its own (libGLcore.so in
/us/lib)
The reporter setup could have happenend if nvidia-glx messed up
with the dpkg-divert (which happend quite often for the first
releases)
(II) LoadModule: "GLcore"
(II) Loading /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions/libGLcore.a
(II) Module GLcore: vendor="The XFree86 Project"
  compiled for 4.1.0.1, module version = 1.0.0
  ABI class: XFree86 Server Extension, version 0.1

(II) Loading /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions/libglx.so
(II) Module glx: vendor="NVIDIA Corporation"
  compiled for 4.0.1, module version = 1.0.5
  Module class: XFree86 Server Extension
  ABI class: XFree86 Server Extension, version 0.1
(II) Loading extension GLX

knowing that libglx.so (from nvidia-glx) is linked to
/usr/lib/libGLcore.so.1 nowadays it could not happen any more.

There it seems libglx did not depend on its own version of
Glcore but use the xfree one. This explains:

which also happen when no GLcore is loaded . The only way to
reproduce those unresolve symbols with current xfree xor nvidia-glx is 
to remove libglx from extensions or comment glx in X config.


An extract from my emails with the submitter:

"I don't have a GeForce2MX anymore :)  You can probably close this
bug as irrelevant or non-reproducable now.

Cheers

Richard"


" I don't recall what I did, I may have gone to the binary drivers
for nvidia cards, or actually...  I think I used that as an
excuse to upgrade :)

Richard"

I have done my tests on a Geforce2 Ti (quite close from the mx).
I have not yet managed to load nvidia glx with xfree GLcore but
my bet is that it is not possible anymore (due to direct linking
between the nvidia glx and its libGLcore). 

Regards 
Alban


PS: i won't close it myself as per the policy for working on bug
on the X strike force site.

Hi i have a gefroce2 TI and did not encounter the problem with a
standard configuration : 
- using nvidia drivers and module glx
 or
-  nv and  module GLcore

In the reporter case nv is loaded with glx AND GLcore !



This report show that the user had installed the ndivia layer
(module glx is enabled and loaded during X init) but then 
changed to nv driver.
There i must have been a nvidia-glx bug at this time, with the
latest version installed, GLCore cannot load in X:
(II) LoadModule: "GLcore"
(WW) Warning, couldn't open module GLcore
(II) UnloadModule: "GLcore"
(EE) Failed to load module "GLcore" (module does not exist, 0) 

In the reporter report we have a mix of GLcore and glx:
Section "Module"
  Load  "ddc"
  Load  "GLcore"
  Load  "dbe"
  Load  "dri"
  Load  "extmod"
  Load  "glx"
  Load  "pex5"
  Load  "record"
  Load  "xie"
  Load  "bitmap"
  Load  "freetype"
  Load  "speedo"
  Load  "type1"
  Load  "vbe"
  Load  "int10"
EndSection


(II) LoadModule: "GLcore"
(II) Loading /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions/libGLcore.a
(II) Module GLcore: vendor="The XFree86 Project"
  compiled for 4.1.0.1, module version = 1.0.0
  ABI class: XFree86 Server Extension, version 0.1
(II) LoadModule: "GLcore"

(II) LoadModule: "glx"
(II) Loading /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions/libglx.so

  ABI class: XFree86 Server Extension, version 0.1

and when the user start an opengl application X crash , no trace
in the log.


Maybe this report could be reassigned to nvidia-glx, with the
other problems.
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?pkg=nvidia-glx
nvidia-glx diverting Glcore seems to works now. There is still
the problem  that when nvidia-glx is installed and the user
switch from "nvidia" to "nv" , the divert prevents the use of
mesa software

Richard Parry (submitter) told me that he do not have this hardware any
more (geforce2 mx).

The report date back from 2001. I do not know if the issue is relevant
any more (nv/xserver always crashing when xscreensaver use opengl).

Ciao
