video test patch adding logging of glxinfo renderer
glxinfo reports on the current 3D render engine not on the current 2D display environment so I don't think it provides what $summary is asking for. We can add a call to glxinfo on the idea that more information is better however perhaps we should check 1st to verify mesa is even installed (3D testing is not a requirement); also we need to ensure the reviewers properly parse this information as there is no requirement that the 3D hardware be the same device as the 2D hardware. Moving to v7-1.3 as I think it's more appropriate at this point. Kevin, we grab the startx logs already, however I don't think we have any automatic parsing in it. One of the things as I recall is that every driver prints out different types and formatted data making that seemingly not so reliable. We could probably update to grab the associated /var/log file if that would be better. Created attachment 573482 [details]
patch to grab output from xvinfo, xdriinfo, and glxinfo,
Tested to not crash on this box, but also this is running vesa so these commands don't do much.
