Hi again!

Right, I completely agree. So, this is what happened: Rober Leigh (rleigh) reported that in version 2.63a-1 of blender package there was a problem in visualizing solid objects (they disappear), while wireframe objects were displayed perfectly. At first it seemed to be a blender-related issue, while testing different solutions Roger came to the conclusion that the problem resides in MESA rendering drivers (at least for his ATI Readeon HD6870). He reported Windows, Mac and Linux boxes were tested on different applications using OpenGL and the issue could not be reproduced. Only using the software rendering option from Xorg brought to this situation. While the proprietary driver didn't show any problem. And then Roger told me (being the only active maintainer) that probably at this point the better solution would have been to reassign the bug to MESA package. This is a brief history of the bug. Hope it's clear enough. Thanks for educating me about these procedures ;-) Cheers. -- Matteo F.

Bug#687988: blender: Fails to display solid objects with r600/gallium3D
Hi Roger! Since I can't reproduce this issue on my box, could you possibly test the actual version in experimental suite, based on 2.65a release? And please let me know if the issue still persists; otherwise, I'd like to close this bug report in next revision (almost ready to go). Cheers. -- Matteo F.

I did some more testing here on Windows and Mac in addition to Linux, and couldn't reproduce it. It turned out to be a bug in the Mesa software rendering--installing the Radeon proprietary driver fixed things. For some reason my Radeon HD6970 was defaulting to use software rendering with Xorg and there was some other issue with the ati/radeon driver. Whatever the cause here, it's definitely not a bug in blender, so I would suggest reassigning it to Mesa. Thanks, Roger -- .''`.

reassign 687988 src:mesa 8.0.5-3 thanks Hi Roger! On Mon, Jan 28, 2013 at 11:10 AM, Roger Leigh rle...@codelibre.net wrote: Sorry, I should have replied sooner.

Good to know. ;-) Whatever the cause here, it's definitely not a bug in blender, so I would suggest reassigning it to Mesa. Doing it right now. Thanks for your efforts in sorting this out.
