Description Karel Clock Kulhavy 2005-01-15 12:50:46 UTC
I have freshly installed X.Org and everything seems to run fine including window
managers etc. But glxinfo segfaults:
clock@beton:~$ glxinfo
name of display: :0.0
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

Please tell me how can I recompile glxinfo and possible also other libraries with
-g to provide at least a stack trace.
Comment 1 Karel Clock Kulhavy 2005-01-15 12:52:15 UTC
During the installation I have been proceeding according to the BUILD file in the
X.Org source distribution. I didn't apply any third-party patches etc.
Comment 2 Adam Jackson 2005-01-22 12:39:15 UTC
for starters, 'LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose glxinfo'.

your xorg.conf would also be helpful.
Comment 3 Adam Jackson 2005-03-22 13:20:23 UTC
marking this one WORKSFORME as there is at least one GLX client library crash
fix in 6.8.2 and I cannot reproduce this.

reporter, if this is still a problem for you, please reopen the bug and attach
the output from running

LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose glxinfo
Comment 4 Michal J. Gajda 2007-12-17 07:14:52 UTC
Yes, please:

$ LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose glxinfo 
name of display: :0.0
Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual

Segmentation fault

glxinfo really does work, I'm closing this bug.
