[Yade-dev] [Bug 419861] Re: bzr1735 OpenGL + ATI serious problems, ubuntu 9.04
Ok, Fernando and Imran are now checking fglrx and understood the driver issue. I can mark this bug as invalid now, as it is a problem of drivers, not with yade. ** Changed in: yade Status: New = Invalid -- bzr1735 OpenGL + ATI serious problems, ubuntu 9.04 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/419861 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Yade developers, which is subscribed to Yade.

[Yade-dev] [Bug 419861] Re: bzr1735 OpenGL + ATI serious problems, ubuntu 9.04
Thanks, I never followed ATI issues. Now I recall something like that happening. I'll check with Fernando what we can do. But maybe we can do some simple check built into yade to warn the user about bug in another software that causes yade to display stuff in a wrong way. Simplest would be to see if lspci contains ATI, if it does then write a message that compiz-fusion must be disabled and fglrx binary drivers must be installed. Let's keep this bug as New (just for me) until I solve this issue with Fernando. That's just for me to not forget about that :) -- bzr1735 OpenGL + ATI serious problems, ubuntu 9.04 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/419861 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Yade developers, which is subscribed to Yade.

Fernando, can you check if you can try yade with an nvidia graphics card? If it's not ATI/nvidia issue, then we need to find out more about that... -- bzr1735 OpenGL + ATI serious problems, ubuntu 9.04 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/419861 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Yade developers, which is subscribed to Yade.

[Yade-dev] [Bug 419861] Re: bzr1735 OpenGL + ATI serious problems, ubuntu 9.04
I am using HD4850 card with binary drivers, but it was quite trial-and- error to get it to run. FWIW, I have stock kernel (2.6.28-15-generic), xorg and mesa from https://launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers and ATI binary drivers from their website (they provide a binary program that can be run to make installable deb packages locally, which have version 2:8.640-0ubuntu1). The open-source driver runs glxgears, but not yade (and not compiz, for that matter, either). At first yade would show just blank 3d view if compiz (accelrated desktop) was enabled, but it somehow is OK now, probably after some random settings in the catalyst drivers. Second issue was that DRM wasn't enabled as i915 module was blocking fglrx module from being loaded (I had to blacklist i915), but that is clearly stated in /var/log/Xorg.0.log. Now it is working fine for me, but it is really not bug in yade, and definitely not a critical one. -- bzr1735 OpenGL + ATI serious problems, ubuntu 9.04 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/419861 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Yade developers, which is subscribed to Yade.
