Again, I'll check Monday. I did remove the correct one. After a restart, no difference, same GUI listener behavior.

Hi Jon, I don't have access to that computer now, but I'll check the glxgears program on Monday and let you know. I did, however, run ldconfig -p yesterday and saved the output to a file. Here are the matches to "libGL*": libGLU.so.1 (libc6) => /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libGLU.so.1 libGLU.so (libc6) => /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libGLU.so libGLEWmx.so.1.6 (libc6) => /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libGLEWmx.so.1.6 libGLEWmx.so.1.5 (libc6) => /usr/lib/libGLEWmx.so.1.5 libGLEW.so.1.6 (libc6) => /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libGLEW.so.1.6 libGLEW.so.1.5 (libc6) => /usr/lib/libGLEW.so.1.5 libGLC.so.0 (libc6) => /usr/lib/libGLC.so.0 libGL.so.1 (libc6, OS ABI: Linux 2.4.20) => /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/mesa/libGL.so.1 libGL.so (libc6, OS ABI: Linux 2.4.20) => /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/mesa/libGL.so libGL.so (libc6, OS ABI: Linux 2.4.20) => /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libGL.so In the issue #926 link Doug posted, one of Doug's comments was: "As a workaround, is it safe to simply remove the /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libGL.so pointing to mesa/libGL.so symlink?"

Re: [Factor-talk] Can't open graphical listener in Ubuntu 12.04
Hi Doug, Thanks for responding so quickly. I have an Intel video controller on this machine (lspci returns: VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82845G/GL[Brookdale-G]/GE Chipset Integrated Graphics Device (rev 03)). It's a pretty old computer. My libGL.so links to the Mesa driver. At the page you linked to, bjourne suggested "Maybe dpkg-reconfigure --all can solve it", so I'm running that now. It's taking quite a long time! Maybe that won't solve my problem, but I figured it couldn't hurt. I'll let you know. Any other thoughts or things I should look at? -John On Fri, Sep 12, 2014 at 1:20 PM, Doug Coleman wrote: > Hi, > > Do you happen to have a Radeon card?

Re: [Factor-talk] Can't open graphical listener in Ubuntu 12.04
Hi, Do you happen to have a Radeon card? One of the libraries required by Factor pulls in the OpenGL Mesa driver which shadows the Radeon driver. You can make sure to load the binary Radeon driver: LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/fglrx ./factor This should link to your Radeon driver and not Mesa: ls -al /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libGL.so See for more: https://github.com/slavapestov/factor/issues/926 If this is not your issue, we can try to debug it.

[Factor-talk] Can't open graphical listener in Ubuntu 12.04
I have a problem that I don't believe is really a Factor problem but rather a problem with my desktop environment that only manifests itself (so far) when I try to open the Factor graphical listener. It used to work fine. Then, a while ago I was trying out various desktop environments (Unity, Gnome2, XFCE) and window managers (Ion3, PWM3, ScrotWM, Wmii, XMonad, Awesome and i3) and now I find that, regardless of which of these I use, I can't open the Factor graphical listener. When I try, I get a couple of transparent windows (error messages?) on top of the listener "shadow" window. I have to kill the process to close it (or ctrl-C from the command line. See below). "factor -r=listener" works fine from the command line. If I try to run the graphical listener from the command line, I get two duplicate error messages: "factor: swrast/s_renderbuffer.c:588: map_attachment: Assertion `srb->Map' failed." Does anyone have an idea about what's going on and how I can solve this problem or troubleshoot it further? I've tried both Björn's PPA version and a development release from early August with the same results. -- Want excitement? Manually upgrade your production database.
