Description Johannes Rauh 2010-04-26 11:21:57 UTC 
Doing the following (as an unprivileged user) leads to a segfault on my machine (Intel 915GM):

1. Start driconf.
2. In the right hand tab ("Debugging"*) disable the first entry ("disable 3D acceleration"*)
3. Quit driconf.
4. glxgears, glxinfo and driconf won't start.
5. After deleting the driconf configuration file (~/.drirc) the programmes start without problem.

I attach the .drirc.

I'm using mesa-7.8.1 and mesa-progs-7.7 from Gentoo.

* I have a German locale, so I'm trying to guess the English captions...

This is fixed in master, looks like by one of the myriad dri2 changes that's happened.
