Description David Batson 2011-07-26 00:45:35 CEST

Description of problem:
I was trying to install the Intel Sandybridge video driver.  I installed libva (albeit the i586 version on my x86-64 system) and vainfo.  When I first ran vainfo it reported that it could not find /usr/lib64/dri/i965_drv_video.so.  I had this file on my Fedora install, so I copied it over.  Next vainfo complained that it required GLIBC version 2.14 or higher.  I can only find version 2.12 in all the Mageia repositories.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
GLIBC version 2.14

How reproducible:
Install libva, libva-devel, and vainfo.
Copy /usr/lib64/dri/i965_drv_video.so from Fedora to same directory in Mageia.
Run vainfo.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install libva, libva-devel, and vainfo.
2. Copy /usr/lib64/dri/i965_drv_video.so from Fedora to same directory in Mageia.
3. Run vainfo.

[root@localhost ~]# vainfo
libva: libva version 0.32.0
libva: va_getDriverName() returns 0
libva: Trying to open /usr/lib64/dri/i965_drv_video.so
libva error: dlopen of /usr/lib64/dri/i965_drv_video.so failed: /lib64/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.14' not found (required by /usr/lib64/dri/i965_drv_video.so)
libva: va_openDriver() returns -1
vaInitialize failed with error code -1 (unknown libva error),exit

Yeah, copying a precompiled library from an other distro wont work as you noticed.


So remove that .so file again


urpmf can tell you what package you need:

# urpmf i965_drv_video.so
vaapi-driver-i965:/usr/lib64/dri/i965_drv_video.so

so install vaapi-driver-i965

Ok, thanks.  Didn't know about the vaapi-driver-i965 package.  Fedora includes i965_drv_video.so in libva.
