Attachments: Snippet from context.c with fix

Description James Burns 2007-06-05 15:25:54 UTC
Tracked this down to the check_compatible method in context.c.  The depth bits comparison is failing as the OSMesa context creation is using a default of 31 bits for depth.  The framebuffer/renderbuffer that is being compared against the context is made with 32 bits, and apparently can not be made with 31 bits (reference renderbuffer.c).  

I was able to bypass the depth bit comparison in check_compatible and all works. I am not positive what effect removal of this comparison might have in the bigger scheme, so someone may want to look at this bypass or changing of the OSMESA default depth buffer size.

Snippet from context.c with fix

The attached code is the check_comparison method that I modified to allow the make current method work.

I'm wondering where the 31 is coming from.  Are you using an old version of Mesa?  Current Mesa supports full 32-bit depth buffers.

Anyway, I think it's safe to disable the test as your patch does.  I'll check that in.

This is coming from Mesa 6.5.3.  I have patches a few things related to GLSL shaders, based on bug reports posted.   I never tracked down where 31 was coming from, but it is the depth that was getting assigned to the context.
