[Bug 574507] [NEW] Mesa drivers getting munged on Lucid Upgrade

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

Binary package hint: ubuntu-netbook-remix-default-settings

Upon updating to Lucid the Mesa drivers seem to be clobbered by fglrx
drivers on Intel Based video drivers.

Initial (partial) report is here:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/netbook-launcher/+bug/570659

GLX related applications will segfault also causing netbook-launcher to
loop

-------

Release: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS

My fix (from other report)

Since my S10-2 has Intel video card, and I noticed that it's trying to
use the NVIDIA drivers I started with this:

This allowed xorg to at least start using the Intel Drivers for GLX -
however, the applications still seg faulted when trying to run which
lead me to this:

It turned out I did have two different libGL libraries:

/usr/lib/mesa
/usr/lib/fglrx

I removed /usr/lib/fglrx and modified /etc/ld.so.conf.d/GL.conf to point
to the mesa drivers, however they didn't seem to really contain all the
extensions required.

After doing the above I found that fglrx package was still installed so:

sudo apt-get remove --purge fglrx

This still didn't work, so I reinstalled all the mesa drivers again:

sudo apt-get install libglw1-mesa mesa-utils libglu1-mesa libgl1-mesa-
glx libgl1-mesa-dri --reinstall

forcing all my drivers back to normal for mesa

And now I can login with regular remix and run glxgears etc.
