*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 6624 ***

Reopening for the client side warning. It's caused by the visual being marked
non-conformant by AIGLX. A solution is being discussed on the mesa3d-dev mailing
list.

Note that this is completely cosmetic and has no functional impact.

Since I still see this issue with Mesa 7.0. Anyone who can at least give me a pointer to the mentioned discussion on mesa-dev? I couldn't find it. :-(

I'm not sure, but I think I was referring to http://www.mail-archive.com/mesa3d-dev@lists.sourceforge.net/msg01301.html . Some experiments of mine indicate the caveat isn't the only problem though. Another approach might be to add an entry corresponding to the AIGLX visual on the client side, either in each driver or libGL itself.

Thanks, Michael. Strangely I get this message even when AIGLX is disabled.

Any ideas where thes are defined in Mesa sources?

Hmm. I don't think the id as such has any inherent meaning (so it could potentially change), I think though it's always the last mode. Maybe it would be better to filter the GLX_NON_CONFORMANT_CONFIG bit in the VisualRating instead, I don't think those are used anywhere else (and even if they were it would only suppress the warning if the driver can't support it anyway).

Thanks for the proposal. Unfortunately I can't say. I have exactly no idea of Mesa sources. Maybe you can provide an appropriate patch?

patch for filtering warnings about non-conformant visuals

What about this patch instead. Just filters warnings about unsupported non-conformant visuals instead of relying on the visual id.
Not sure though it's a good solution neither...

Thanks. This is definitely a better patch.

Hmm. Shouldn't it be

  if (m->visualRating != GLX_NON_CONFORMANT_CONFIG)
                      ^^

?

Oops. Yes of course...

Can you commit the patch into git and/or discuss it with Brian Paul? I'm afraid otherwise this issue will never get fixed upstream. :-( The warning is *very* confusing for users ...

I've been tempted to simply disable the warning for quite a while.  It's annoying and misleading.  I think Ian's the only person that knows the whole story behind it.

Roland pushed his patch to Mesa GIT.

Thanks a lot!
