mesa 7.8.1 broken (glxinfo and glxgears)

[adfernandes (Andrew Fernandes)]

I don't know if it is the 7.8.1 update or the changes induced by 10.6.3, but my mesa and several MacPorts ports all stopped working! These include pymol and the R package rgl. (They all worked before the 10.6.3 and mesa update.)

More telling, however, is that I have mesa @7.8.1_0+hw_render installed. Trying the included glxinfo or glxgears utilities gives me the following:

X Error of failed request:  BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)
  Major opcode of failed request:  0 ()
  Value in failed request:  0xffffffff
  Serial number of failed request:  16
  Current serial number in output stream:  16

Through some heroic debugging of other people's modules, I discovered that the X calls seem to be working fine, but the failures occur with the rather critical glXCreateContext function.

Am I the only person who is seeing this?

I'll try turning off the hw_render option and see if that helps...

Please remember to assign the ticket to the maintainer.

Heh. No worries; anyone who maintains a patchset that large deserves some sort of medal... :-)
