[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1742894] Re: Scilab does not start after some upgrades on Ubuntu Xenial
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. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to mesa in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1742894 Title: Scilab does not start after some upgrades on Ubuntu Xenial To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mesa/+bug/1742894/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

Apport-collect done.

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 vendor : Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1639371] Re: OpenGL Graphics broken on November 4th upgrades
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. ** Also affects: xorg-server (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1639371 Title: OpenGL Graphics broken on November 4th upgrades To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/freecad/+bug/1639371/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
