Returning to my machine after spending some time in the kitchen preparing a chicken risotto I was met with the following: Couldn't open required GL library /usr/lib/Mesa3/libGL.so.1.2! gears: error while loading shared libraries: gears: undefined symbol: glXChooseVisual xscreensaver: child pid 1165 (gears) exited abnormally (code 127) Making a symlink from /usr/lib/Mesa3/libGL.1.2.0 to /usr/lib/Mesa3/libGL.1.2 made the screensaver work. So either the symlink is missing or the app shouldn't look for it ;) I see that the Mesa4 lib has only libGL.1.2 and not libGL.1.2.0 Cheers Kjartan Maraas
This should all read libGL.so.1.2 etc of course. ^^ Kjartan
This should be fixed in beta4.
