Bug 86215 – opendx fails to start with undefined symbol: glBlendEquationSeparateNVX

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED INVALID

[Description John 2005-03-21 21:05:38 UTC]

emerge seemed to succeed; there were a few warnings e.g. regexp.h not compilable.
Hardware is AMD Athlon xp 2500 with Nvidia nforce2 mobo.
Other openGL stuff works, e.g. celestia.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge opendx
2. dx
3.

Actual Results:  
$ dx
/usr/dx/bin_linux/startupui: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libGLcore.so.1:
undefined symbol: glBlendEquationSeparateNVX


Expected Results:  
should have started the ui

[Comment 1 John 2005-04-03 14:07:26 UTC]

Upgraded NVIDIA driver from 5336 to 6629 resolved the symbol error.  No rebuild necessary.

opendx may require additional dependency information to avoid this type of error in future.

[Comment 2 Marcelo Goes (RETIRED) 2005-08-13 14:53:49 UTC]

Not really a problem with opendx, it seems.
At any rate, 6629 drivers are marked stable, I don't think others will run into
the same problem.

Please re-open this bug if necessary.
