Description Matija "hook" Šuklje 2008-07-18 19:33:15 UTC
Tested version: 1.2.0, since I'm trying to get it working on Amarok via 'libvisual'.

Steps of reproduction:
1) 'emerge media-plugins/libvisual-projectm'
2) start a projectm visualisation (e.g. in Amarok)
3) see the visualisation die (e.g. in Amarok see the visualisation window appear (blank) for a split-second and then close itself)

What I've learnt on the #projectm IRC channel is that opensource drivers *might* have problems with FBO and it might solve the problem to turn FBO off (e.g. using 'ccmake') if such drivers are used.

Not reliable. You can always install a different driver after having build projectm.

Sounds more lika a driver problem.

Well, if that is so, I suppose I don't know of a possible cheap workaround and I'm raising the severity level back to normal.

Here's my 'emerge --info':

Please reopen if it still happens with latest testing drivers (6.12.2)
