Blender 2.8 with software GL does not start #56315

Closed
opened 2018-08-11 14:22:48 +02:00 by Petra Mogyorósi · 15 comments

System Information
Debian 9 "Stretch" x86_64/NVidia GeForce 7025/nForce 630a with latest drivers from NVidia (304.xx, not from repo or Nouveau)
Pisi Linux 2 x86_64/AMD Radeon HD 8330 with official drivers
Blender Version
Broken: 2.8 Alpha (hash d7b5e2fa72)

Short description of error
blender-softwaregl simply fails to start as it segfaults upon starting
This presumably affects all Linux builds as the error is reproducible on at least two Linux types (DEB and PISI based)

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
Just start blender-softwaregl

Well, it’s working here (debian64 testing, intel integrated GPU)… @fclem can you check that one too?

I can repro it crashes with the following message
Warning! GLX_ARB_create_context not available.

So I guess the included software libGL is too old?

Is anyone going to change this? No version of blender works for me, and running with softwaregl is the recommended fix, but I can't do that.

@Sergey, I guess updating the mesa libraries to the latest version is a job for the platform maintainer.

The software-gl used in official builds is now updated, and supports OpenGL 3.3.

Would be nice to have windows software OpenGL libraries updated, but those are not distributed officially, so that's not really a topic of the bug tracker.

Thanks for the report, closing it now.

Only saw this thread now, just in case someone bumps into this the opengl32.dll we have at https://download.blender.org/opengl/software-emulation/windows64/opengl32.dll is Mesa 17.3.6 (git-b00880973e) and does 3.3 we updated it somewhere early in the 2.8 cycle.
