Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: nvidia-glx-legacy
Description of the problem:
The act of running BZflag seems to be able to trigger a bug in the
nvidia-glx-legacy driver for me. This problem seems to have gotten worse over
the years and is something that only nvidia can fix. This is just a place
holder for other people to find.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Install nvidia-glx-legacy and ensure that composite is turned off so 3D
acceleration works.
2. Install bzflag .
3. Run bzflag then go to: Join Game -> Start Server -> Start .
Expected result:
Server to fail to start because bzflag-server is not installed. "Failed (exit =
2)." to be displayed.
Actual result:
Server fails to start because bzflag-server is not installed. "Failed (exit =
2)." is displayed. Keyboard stops responding and bzflag will chew up 98% of the
CPU until killed off at a virtual terminal. The following is printed in syslog:
NVRM: Xid: 6, PE0002 0404 00120000 00000000 80000000 00120000
(or)
NVRM: Xid: 6, PE0002 0404 00120000 00210000 80000000 00120000
