Description Thomas 2010-11-12 06:31:30 UTC

I tried to upgrade my mesa package to 7.9, upon rebooting I wasn't able to log into my KDE session, each time I typed my password the login prompt was displayed again after a short time and some flicker. This happened every reboot. I downgraded packages and narrowed the problem as part of the libgl 7.8.2 -> 7.9 upgrade.

The problem is still present with git version. I bisected the issue to the following commit :

Archlinux PKGBULD, Xorg.0.log and commit attached.

My system run a HD5770 graphics card and swrast is used (I was trying to make the radeon driver to work when I came accross the issue) :

[thomas@sherwood ~]$ glxinfo | grep -i opengl

I tried to debug libgl during the kde's loading but I failed.

During my attempts I manage to load the kde desktop with the faulty version of libgl installed this way :
* boot in runlevel 3 (console)
* log in
* startx
* startkde in one of the xterms displayed
* you get a desktop but without the window decoration.

So my guess is that it's that the segfault occurs when Kwin is launched.

Disabling glx in xorg.conf allow environment to load.

llvmpipe should be used in place of swrast these days. Marking as won't fix.
