Description William Kenney 2016-03-18 21:48:11 CET
Description of problem:

In VirtualBox, M5, KDE, 64-bit

Package(s) under test:
blender

default install of blender

[root@localhost wilcal]# urpmi blender
Package blender-2.73a-1.mga5.x86_64 is already installed

In Vbox running blender from a terminal results in the following error:

[wilcal@localhost ~]$ blender
libGL error: pci id for fd 8: 80ee:beef, driver (null)
libGL error: core dri or dri2 extension not found
libGL error: failed to load driver: vboxvideo
GLEW Error (0x0001): GLEW_ERROR_NO_GL_VERSION: Missing GL version
Writing: /tmp/blender.crash.txt
Segmentation fault

Probably missing OpenGL 2.x support.

Works fine on real hardware.

It might be nice for the maintainer to be able to read your /tmp/blender.crash.txt

Do you mind attaching it? (unless, of course, there was nothing more in it than in the paste from your terminal that you posted in comment #0 )

I can reproduce this issue on a mga5 VM, but I don't know if it come from blender or rather from VirtualBox.

Note that on a Cauldron (mga6) VM it works fine, no segfault.

@tmb: what do you think about that?

Hi Bill,

Thank you for having taken the needed time to report this issue!

(and DavidDavid for having reproduced and looked into it)

Did this bug get fixed? If so, please change its status to RESOLVED - FIXED

If it didn't, then we regret that we weren't able to fix it in Mageia 5. Mageia 5 has officially reached its End of Life on December 31st, 2017 https://blog.mageia.org/en/2017/11/07/mageia-5-eol-postponed/
It only continued to get important security updates since then, because we are waiting for a big Plasma5 update in Mageia 6, that'll fix many of the Mageia 5 => 6 upgrade issues.

If you haven't seen that this bug got fixed, then please check whether this bug still exists in Mageia 6. If it does, then please change the Version (near the top, at the left) to "6". If you know it exists in Cauldron, then change Version to Cauldron. If you see it in both Cauldron and Mageia 6, then please set Version to Cauldron and add MGA6TOO on the Whiteboard.

Thanks,
Marja

Is it related to bug 22326 ?

Maybe not, because that was a Mageia7_cauldron issue, and, rereading this report, I see:

So back then Mageia 6_cauldron didn't have it.

Closing this report as OLD, because Mageia 5 is no longer maintained. I assume it is better to reopen bug 22326 if that issue happens on Mageia 6, too.

Status: NEW => RESOLVED
Resolution: (none) => OLD
