Description Kete Tefid 2014-10-12 14:16:11 UTC
Hello,

Please kindly make an ebuild for the appliation glxosd. https://github.com/nickguletskii/GLXOSD

This tool can monitor fps in native linux games.

I have tried to build it but the compilation fails with many errors related to boost. 

Cheers,

glxosd-2.3.3.ebuild

It doesn't compile with stable dev-libs/boost, and the upstream documentation notes it should compile on Ubuntu, so this needs some testing to determine which boost version should be used.

Hello,
I would be happy to help and test/do what is needed. Please kindly inform us if you need any testing.

Figure out which minimum version of dev-libs/boost this requires.
Comment 4 Kete Tefid 2014-10-23 09:39:37 UTC
Testing all of the available boost versions in the portage the minimum one was found to be =dev-libs/boost-1.54.0-r1.
However, having built the package from the source (not using the ebuild), it refused to work with the following errors:

 glxosd glxgears

Somehow it cannot find the libs. /usr/local/lib is in the path.

Thank you very much for your work.
I installed the package through the ebuild you made and now the former errors are gone but a new one has appeared:

terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::runtime_error'
  what():  Couldn't compile GLXOSD shader: 0:1(10): error: GLSL 1.30 is not supported. Supported versions are: 1.10, 1.20, and 1.00 ES

/usr/bin/glxosd: line 70: 31427 Aborted                 "$@"


Is this gentoo related? Maybe it does not work for intel gpus.

It's probably driver support, yes. It happens to work on an Nvidia GT 6200 here, but I haven't tried running on other systems or figuring out how to break it. I did notice that the lettering of the actual statistics was off in colour and hardly legible.
Comment 8 Kete Tefid 2014-11-07 20:36:58 UTC
Hello,

I have tested this ebuild on an AMD system and I can confirm that it works. Some modification are needed in the main script glxosd in /usr/bin, the most important of which is changing the following lines:

GLXOSD_LIBRARY_PATH_I386="/usr//lib/i386-linux-gnu//glxosd/"
GLXOSD_LIBRARY_PATH_AMD64="/usr//lib/x86_64-linux-gnu//glxosd/"

to:

GLXOSD_LIBRARY_PATH_AMD64="/usr/lib64/"
GLXOSD_LIBRARY_PATH_I386="/usr/lib32/"

The package works with different configurations. However, the main problem is that the application does not work with 32 built binaries and it outputs these errors:

ERROR: ld.so: object 'libglxosd-elfhacks.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded (wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64): ignored.
ERROR: ld.so: object 'libglxosd-glinject.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded (wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64): ignored.
ERROR: ld.so: object 'libglxosd.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded (wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64): ignored.

Is this gentoo related or upstream related? Can it be built in a multilib mode? Even it does not work with steam games.
