Problems with glXGetSwapIntervalMESA on FC6

SDL Development
1

Hello all,

I’ve recently installed FC6 and apps that were working on FC5 now give me
this:

“Failed loading glXGetSwapIntervalMESA: /usr/lib/nvidia/libGL.so.1:
undefined symbol: glXGetSwapIntervalMESA”

I’m pretty sure there is a trivial solution to this (i.e. install a missing
package) but I’m not sure what it is…

Has anyone encountered anything along those lines?

Cheers,
K.

PS.
Apologies in advance if you get this message twice…Messages to the list
seem to get lost atm…

Which app is it? Try to recompile it but it seems that app was hard linked
against a specific libgl which is bad I think.

It’s one of my own apps that uses SDL and openGL.
It’s quite weird because debug builds bomb out with:

Failed loading glXGetSwapIntervalMESA: /usr/lib/nvidia/libGL.so.1: undefined
symbol: glXGetSwapIntervalMESA

BUT if I do a release build, it works ok but comes out with:

NVIDIA: could not open the device file /dev/nvidiactl (Permission denied).
NVIDIA: Direct rendering failed; attempting indirect rendering.

Any help much appreciated…I’ve no idea what’s gone wrong :frowning:
(As I said, all this used to work fine under FC5).
