Hi. I'm running Fedora 9, with the latest updates. I removed my /etc/X11/xorg.conf, so I should be running with defaults. Things are working grand except that the texture_from_pixmap extension, although advertised, does not appear to work. I cannot make it work in my own code. I cannot make it work with Clutter's code (clutter/test-pixmap in SVN). If i build git compiz and run that, it shows only a white window. In all of these cases, it prints out "failed to create drawable" on stderr. This printf comes from mesa, in src/glx/x11/glx_pbuffer.c: fprintf(stderr, "failed to create drawable\n");. That's about as far as I have been able to dig. Clicking on "desktop effects" does seem to work, in that there are shadows and stuff, but I have no idea how, if compiz does not work from git. What's the deal? I can only think that the driver is borked. 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 0c) 00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 0c)
try using LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=1 ./app you can't do direct rendered TFP yet.
Thank you Dave, I appreciate the help.
