[Bug 121574] Re: nvidia X crashes whenever applications use gl
oz: Point understood (although bear in mind that if we do find a solution to the crashing all 3D calculations will be run on your CPU and may be extremely slow). It would be useful to see the left over Xorg.0.old log (assuming you start X again) that is left over after a crash. Speculatively punting from Ubuntu -> xorg. ** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu) Sourcepackagename: None => xorg ** Summary changed: - nvidia X crashes whenever applications use gl + Open source nv X crashes whenever applications use gl -- Open source nv X crashes whenever applications use gl https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/121574 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 121574] Re: nvidia X crashes whenever applications use gl
Mr. Wheeler: This is not a support query for three reasons: 1. X crashes. 2. It's the configuration made by the installer. 3. I do not want closed source drivers. (except the installer recommends/installs them automatically.) "3D support" would be nice, but I do not need it. However, if I start an application requireing "3D support" but I have no "3D support", the application should exit and tell me that it won't run without "3D support". Instead X crashes. I do not want to modify stuff manually, if I would want that I'd installd debian or gentoo. However, I would have queried support, if I wanted to have the problem only solved for me. Instead I want it solved for everyone.

This is my xorg.conf it is like the installer made it. I did not modify it and I do not want to modify it manually. ** Attachment added: "/etc/X11/xorg.conf" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/8173093/xorg.conf -- nvidia X crashes whenever applications use gl https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/121574 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

oz:
This is actually more of a support query than a bug report ("How do I get 3D
going on my NVIDIA graphics card under Ubuntu?") and may have been better asked
on one of the areas listed on http://www.ubuntu.com/support/communitysupport .
You did not say what version of Ubuntu you were running (however I from the log
posted I can deduce that it is probably Ubuntu 7.04 Feisty). If you are using
7.04, the short answer is to take a look at
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia .
The long answer is that you are using the open source nv driver and the
open source driver for NVIDIA cards does not have any 3D support. This
is because NVIDIA have not released specifications on how the 3D (or
dual head for that matter) portion of their cards works and nor will
they in the future (see http://www.abclinuxu.cz/clanky/rozhovory/andy-
ritger-nvidia?page=1 ). There is a reverse engineering effort called
Nouveau (http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/FrontPage ) that is
attempting to rectify this but the project is in its infancy. The closed
source NVIDIA binary driver DOES have accelerated 3D support and other
features not available in the open source nv driver but is not installed
"out of the box". https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverEducation talks a
bit about the pros and cons of binary drivers.
At any rate, does following the instructions on
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia rectify the
problem?
