Description of problem: Several games, including ppracer and GL-117, fail to initialize with my Radeon 9250 graphics card due to what seems to be a conflict with OpenGL, and every set of graphics drivers I've tried. Supertux runs, but at a framerate extremely lower than what I got before the conflict. I am sure this is the same problem. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Every time one of the aformentioned games is run. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run any of the aformentioned games from Konsole. 2. 3. Actual results: Errors printed to the Terminal: libGL warning: 3D driver claims to not support visual 0x4b drmCommandWrite: -22 drmRadeonCmdBuffer: -22 (exiting) Expected results: The game in question will start normally, or at least without the errors/warnings above. Additional info: I have tried this with: FC5 as shipped FC5 with official updates X11R7.1 from the aiglx repository kernel DRM module 20060809 from ATrpms ...all of which didn't solve the problem.
Could you try downloading and installing (not upgrading but installing) the latest kernel from rawhide and see if that helps?
The same errors are produced with the latest Rawhide kernel. I at least know that the errors are being thrown from OpenGL when it tries to initialize.
A new kernel update has been released (Version: 2.6.18-1.2200.fc5) based upon a new upstream kernel release. Please retest against this new kernel, as a large number of patches go into each upstream release, possibly including changes that may address this problem. This bug has been placed in NEEDINFO state. Due to the large volume of inactive bugs in bugzilla, if this bug is still in this state in two weeks time, it will be closed. Should this bug still be relevant after this period, the reporter can reopen the bug at any time. Any other users on the Cc: list of this bug can request that the bug be reopened by adding a comment to the bug. In the last few updates, some users upgrading from FC4->FC5 have reported that installing a kernel update has left their systems unbootable. If you have been affected by this problem please check you only have one version of device-mapper & lvm2 installed. See bug 207474 for further details. If this bug is a problem preventing you from installing the release this version is filed against, please see bug 169613. If this bug has been fixed, but you are now experiencing a different problem, please file a separate bug for the new problem. Thank you.
The problem still exists on the latest FC6 kernel (2.6.18-1.2849.fc6). Googling around, I have noticed several other cases of this problem, but no solutions to be found.
Reporter, could you confirm please, that this bug still could be reproduced with the latest release of Fedora (FC6)? If yes, please, attach to this bug your X server config file (/etc/X11/xorg.conf) and X server log file (/var/log/Xorg.*.log) to the bug report as individual uncompressed file attachments using the bugzilla file attachment link below. Could you please also try to run without any /etc/X11/xorg.conf whatsoever and let X11 autodetect your display and video card? Attach to this bug /var/log/Xorg.0.log from this attempt as well, please. We will review this issue again once you've had a chance to attach this information. Thanks in advance.
