[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1742894] Re: Scilab does not start after some upgrades on Ubuntu Xenial

2018-01-21 Thread Tim Wescott
Any news for the newbie on how soon the fix will be applied?

I see the comment on downgrading and pinning a bunch of MESA packages --
but I don't know exactly how to do the downgrade, nor how to safely undo
the pinning once it's no longer necessary.  I don't want to muck up my
machine.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1639371] Re: OpenGL Graphics broken on November 4th upgrades

2016-11-10 Thread Tim Wescott
I admit to shotgunning the components against which it's logged, because
it's just not clear to me what it should be logged against.

Apport-collect done.  The Nvidia just came with the Ubuntu install, I
was kinda surprised to see it there at all.

apport information

** Tags added: apport-collected third-party-packages trusty

** Description changed:

  First: I don't know if I'm reporting this against the correct package.
  The bug report system needs a "unknown package" reporting system, for
  people who aren't freaking IT experts yet who are still smart enough to
  notice a real live problem.
  
  I have a Radeon card, but things most definitely broke TODAY immediately
  after I did a software upgrade.
  
  I use Scilab, which uses OpenGL heavily.  After today's upgrade, it was
  unable to display graphics, reporting
  
  "Caused by: javax.media.opengl.GLException: Profile GL_DEFAULT is not
  available on X11GraphicsDevice[type .x11, connection :0.0"
  
  The symptom in Scilab was that the graphics window opened, but no graph
  was drawn upon it.  glxinfo is unable to find an RGB visual; I assume
  that means that GL is broken -- glxinfo certainly works just fine on
  another machine upon which Scilab also works just fine.
  
  ubuntu-drivers devices returns
  
  == /sys/devices/pci:00/:00:01.0 ==
  modalias : pci:v1002d130Fsv1043sd85CBbc03sc00i00

  driver   : fglrx-updates - distro non-free
  driver   : xserver-xorg-video-ati - distro free builtin recommended
  driver   : fglrx - distro non-free
  
  As near as I can tell, the xserver-xorg-video-ati is installed.  I have
  not attempted to change over to fglrx.
  
  glxinfo returns:

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1639371] Re: OpenGL Graphics broken on November 4th upgrades

2016-11-08 Thread Tim Wescott
Found inspiration for a work-around on this page:

http://askubuntu.com/questions/475972/error-couldnt-find-rgb-glx-visual-
or-fbconfig-ubuntu-12-04/476916#476916

This is NOT TRIVIAL.  I started by trying to follow that page's
recommendations, replacing "xserver-xorg" with "xserver-common", and
BORKED X entirely, to the point where I couldn't use the keyboard or see
things on the screen.  Fortunately I was able to ssh into the system.

I did a lot of mucking about, but what will probably work is:

sudo apt-get remove --purge xserver-common
sudo apt-get install xorg

I do NOT recommend this if you're shy around computers, or if you don't
have a reliable way to ssh into your sick box.  I'm sure there's a very-
much-better way of solving the problem, but I'm not good enough to know
it.
