Description Alexander R. Pruss 2010-03-27 18:24:04 UTC
Description of problem:
With ATI Rage 128, many programs that need dri (e.g., Stellarium, Supertuxracer) fail, saying that 3D acceleration is not supported.  glxinfo returns something like:
glxinfo: ../common/drirenderbuffer.c:69: driNewRenderbuffer: Assertion `format == 0x1908 || format == 0x8050 || format == 0x8058 || format == 0x81A5 || format == 0x81A6 || format == 0x81A7 || format == 0x8D48' failed.

It all worked fine with FC 9.

This has been fixed upstream in the Mesa library: 
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/commit/?h=mesa_7_7_branch&id=293f4d51b473783d5c5ab773a1c438e0a2fe46f2

I verified that downloading Mesa source, making this change, compiling and installing fixes the problem.  I am hoping that before the FC 13 beta you'll use the latest Mesa code to fix this problem.  Googling for "drirenderbuffer" and "glxinfo" shows that a number of people with other distributions and other display adaptors have had this problem.
