Hi everyone
I'm having problems with X11 2.3.3_rc1. Besides the previously
mentioned messages:
Xlib: extension "Generic Event Extension" missing on display "/tmp/
launch-jn3CGd/:0".
I'm having problems with idl ( commercial,
http://www.ittvis.com/ProductServices/IDL.aspx ). Graphics objects
rendered using OpenGL appear totally black. (The image shows up
momentarily and then becomes black). Using a non-OpenGL version (or
reverting to 2.3.2.1) works fine.
What seems to be occurring when that happens?
There is an open bug related to something like that, when a window
gets withdrawn, and remapped. It occurred in the old libGL too, but
had slightly different behavior.
Any thoughts?
Yes, please try using:
$ export LIBGL_DIAGNOSTIC=1
$ IDL or however you start it
or:
$ env LIBGL_DIAGNOSTIC=1 IDL
try to find the sequence or error listed when it does become black.
My guess is that it's an XError and IDL has installed an XError
handler which is why the app doesn't exit.
George
