Description of problem: Running mesa-demos on my fedora 13 alpha boot partition results in demos which (mostly) seem to work, but which also spew a near unlimited number of Unknown X Event type 96 error messages to stderr. I started with this mailing list thread: http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/test/2010-March/089327.html and that eventually led me to decide to submit this bug. Possibly this is really related to bug 562607, but it seemed like a separate problem. From that mailing list thread, it seems like the event type 96 is really one of the SYNC extension events. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): freeglut-2.6.0-3.fc13.x86_64 mesa-demos-7.8-0.18.fc13.x86_64 How reproducible: Virtually any of the mesa-demos programs will stream lots of these to stderr. Steps to Reproduce: 1.see above 2. 3. Actual results: error messages Expected results: no so many error messages Additional info:
Hello, thanks for reporting. I have this bug already reported but I admit I haven't gotten to examining it yet. I will close the other bug since this one contains the links to related issues.

I have a custom application that uses freeglut and see a flurry of messages printed to stderr as well. It makes any other program output impossible to read. In my particular case the event type is 105. freeglut (./final): Unknown X event type: 105 The component version is: freeglut-2.6.0-3.fc13.i686 I wish freeglut simply ignored these unknown events as they do not affect the application. Oddly enough I don't recall the F12 package being this verbose.
