Bug 13342 – xfree 4.2.1-r2 gives __glxfree and __glxmalloc errors with nvidia glx/kernel

• Status: RESOLVED INVALID
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Alan 2003-01-05 23:45:44 UTC]

Errors relating to __glxfree and __glxmalloc are showing up on the console 
when x is started with startx.  

I have xfree 4.2.1-r2, nvidia-kernel 1.0.3123-r2 and nvidia-glx 1.0.3123 
loaded on a brand new 1.4rc2 system.  

This does not appear to affect X's ability to run correctly however.

Attaching my xfree log and xf86config

Running opengl-update xfree removes these errors (but Nvidia complains it 
can't find GLX (expected)).

Sorda expected.  Please read the docs with nvidia-glx package in /usr/share/doc.
You should remove 'dri' and 'GLcore' from the Modules section, like so ... :

-----------------------------------------

        Load            "extmod"
        Load            "record"

        Load            "dbe"
