I've got a "VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RS690 [Radeon X1200 Series]" according to lspci, and I have just encountered this problem with a recent upgrade from mythbuntu 8.10 to 9.04. My versions of the mesa packages already match Mario's versions, but the `XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS="1" mythfrontend` workaround seems to fix the problem for now.
What is the best way to apply this workaround so that I don't have to start `mythfrontend` manually until a proper fix is released? I was thinking of moving `/usr/bin/mythfrontend` to `/usr/bin/mythfrontend.old` and making a new `/usr/bin/mythfrontend` be something like: #!/usr/bin/bash -u XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS="1" mythfrontend.old Would that be a suitable approach while I await a proper fix in updated packages? -- MythTV Frontend does not work with RADEON DRI https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/341898 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
