Description Ben Gamari 2008-04-08 10:06:05 UTC
In recent pulls of xserver/mesa, all GL applications have stopped working due to a lack of visuals and FBConfigs reported by the server.

Examples:

ben@mercury ~ $ /opt/exp/xorg/mesa/progs/xdemos/glxinfo 
name of display: :0.0
Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual or fbconfig

ben@mercury ~ $ /opt/exp/xorg/mesa/progs/xdemos/glxgears
Error: couldn't get an RGB, Double-buffered visual

ben@mercury ~ $ /opt/exp/xorg/mesa/progs/xdemos/glxgears_fbconfig 
Error getting extensions string.

(note: the "error getting extensions string" message was added by me to glxgears_fbconfig and is due to libGL failing to recognize the screen as GL capable due to a lack of any visuals)
