Description Pierre Ossman 2006-03-24 04:13:26 EST

Description of problem:

When starting the X server with glx, but without dri, you get:

X: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so: undefined
symbol: DRIQueryDirectRenderingCapable
XIO:  fatal IO error 104 (Connection reset by peer) on X server ":0.0"
      after 0 requests (0 known processed) with 0 events remaining.

This bug wasn't present in the previous version (1.0.1-something). Avoiding to
load DRI is desirable since it eats half of the available video memory.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.0.99.1-1


How reproducible:

Every time


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Make sure Load "glx" is in the conf, but not Load "dri".
2. Try to start X server.

  
Actual results:

X server crashes.


Expected results:

Everything runs with GLX extension, but without direct rendering support.

Comment 1 Kristian Høgsberg 2006-03-24 12:54:47 EST

Ah, good point, this is fixed in cvs head now.  We'll pick it up when we build a
new snapshot.  For now, add

        Option         "AIGLX" "0"

to your serverlayout section in xorg.conf to avoid the crash.
