[Bug 1408910] Re: Ubuntu Desktop Next fails to start; just black screen and mouse pointer (unity8.log: std::exception::what: Failed to create shared EGL context)

 

Hmm, actually this has only been reported on i945 systems so far (me and another person in:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/mir/+bug/1275398/comments/20

My Haswell desktop works fine with the same image. Maybe we're missing
something in our relatively recent mesa patches to support i945?...

Bug description:
  Ubuntu Desktop Next fails to start. I just get a black screen and mouse pointer. So unity-system-compositor is working fine. Only the nested unity8 can't run:
  unity8.log: std::exception::what: Failed to create shared EGL context

  I've also verified mir_proving_server with mir_demo_client_* runs fine
  in another VT.

  I think this might be a new issue introduced by the upgrade to Mir
  0.10 last night?
