Package: nvidia-legacy-304xx-alternative Version: 304.125-1 Severity: important
glx-alternative-nvidia sets up a slave link for libEGL. The problem is that nvidia-legacy-304xx-alternative doesn't add this slave link, too. This way libEGL is completely missing in the running system when nvidia-legacy-304xx-alternative is selected via update-alternatives. This leads to many instabilities, e.g. no window decoration in KDE because kwin is just crashing... The attached patch, which just adds a slave link to the mesa version of libEGL, fixes the problem for me. So far everything runs fine, including 3D games. I am not sure if the patch is the correct solution and there are probably more things to fix (dependencies, etc.) so please consider the patch just as a first idea... Cheers Ronny
