Description of problem: Xvfb: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/dri/swrast_dri.so: undefined symbol: _glapi_add_dispatch Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): mesa-dri-drivers-7.1-0.37.fc9.i386 How reproducible: Xvfb :1 Additional info: http://groups.google.com/group/linux.debian.changes.devel/browse_thread/thread/2f46c8c02e2dceb5 * Build with --enable-glx-tls, we build mesa with TLS support (otherwise swrast_dri.so might fail to load due to unresolved symbols).
-EMETOO. I found http://lists4.opensuse.org/opensuse-commit/2008-07/msg00160.html that seems related. Why is this low priority if this is a crasher bug ? Xvfb does not work at all.
Fedora doesn't build with GLX TLS support, it's not selinux-friendly. This is working for me in 1.4.99.905-1.blah in updates-testing...
(In reply to comment #2) > Fedora doesn't build with GLX TLS support, it's not selinux-friendly. > > This is working for me in 1.4.99.905-1.blah in updates-testing... Can you be more specific about what "blah" is? The version number (1.4.99.905-1) matches my presently installed package, and it does not work. It is not clear from the above comments whether the solution lies in the mesa driver or the Xvfb server. How can I get the required package(s) in order to get this to work. Here is what I have now: xorg-x11-server-Xvfb-1.4.99.905-1.20080701.fc9.x86_64 mesa-dri-drivers-7.1-0.37.fc9.x86_64 Let me also second the last point in Comment #1 about the low priority assignment on a broken utility. For some people it can be and is a critical component.
I too have xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.4.99.905-1.20080701.fc9.x86_64 mesa-dri-drivers-7.1-0.37.fc9.x86_64 and when I try to run xvfb get the error Xvfb: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/dri/swrast_dri.so: undefined symbol: _glapi_add_dispatch This is a high priority bug for me since xvfb does not work with no obvious fix. Please bump this to high priority Thanks
It is not working in stable tree - so IMHO priority has to be set higher... I resolved the problem by installing the initial xorg-x11-server-Xvfb FC9 package...
Yep this worked for me also. Many thanks (In reply to comment #5) > It is not working in stable tree - so IMHO priority has to be set higher... > > I resolved the problem by installing the initial xorg-x11-server-Xvfb FC9 > package...

My apologies if I am missing something obvious, but where can I get the 'initial' xorg-x11-server-Xvfb package? The only fc9.x86_64 package that is available from the mirrors is the broken version xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.4.99.905-1.20080701.fc9.x86_64 which is located in updates. Neither the original repository nor updates-testing (as mentioned in comment #2) have a package called xorg-x11-server-Xvfb.
