It is worth pointing out that my initial thoughts on what would be the
quickest thing to do were wrong. Michael has shown that an alternative
way to have tracked down the issue was to recompile xorg without any
patches and assuming that works then you can use repeated bisection and
recompiles to narrow down the issue. If you can do this then there's no
need to initially contact NVIDIA as you can narrow the issue down to a
single patch (but you would need to talk to a xorg person or NVIDIA to
find out whether the patch was bogus).
I've noticed the following in the changelog for the latest xorg
(2:1.3.0.0.dfsg-12ubuntu3) mentions the following:
-
230_In___glXCreateARGBConfig_insert_the_new_GL_mode_at_the__end__of_the_linked_list.patch:
Fixes insertion order of linked list that can cause GLX clients to fail
when attempting to use the last GLX mode/visual.
There is a chance the latest xorg update (presumably 2:1.3.0.0.dfsg-
12ubuntu3) may solve this issue. Can someone install it, restart X and
report back?
