[Bug 1166765] Re: unity showing only blank desktop, no dash nor decorations

 

Upon looking at the attached .xsession-errors, I don't think this is a
compiz bug:

Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0".
Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0".

(gnome-settings-daemon:2437): GnomeDesktop-WARNING **:
GL_MAX_TEXTURE_SIZE helper quit unexpectedly

(you can confirm similar errors when running glxinfo &)

What is certainly curious about this is that the Xorg logs and xdpyinfo
suggest that the glx extension is loaded on the server side, but the
currently loaded libGL.so doesn't think it is, so it refuses to create a
context and everything dies after that.

What would be curious is to learn exactly what libGL.so the opengl
plugin is being linked to. You can figure that out with the following:

ldd /usr/lib/compiz/libopengl.so
