[SOLVED] glibc problem (opengl apps do not work)

quarkup · 2009-11-12 13:04:58

Hi

After upgrading the system, pacman has upgraded the kernel-libs, kernel, glibc, gcc and gcc-libs as you can see
in these lines of the pacman.log : http://dpaste.com/119549/

Actually I cannot launch for example the google-earth application on my kde4 environment.

when I launch it from the terminal, I get this: http://dpaste.com/119544/
also I'm doing a small app 3d with c++ & opengl and this is it's output: http://dpaste.com/hold/119550/

And I am running the i686 arch.

~ $ pacman -Qs glibc
local/glibc 2.11-1 [31,59 MB] (base)
GNU C Library

This is a weird thing. Should I report a bug for glibc ?

edit:

also the kernel I am running is the latest (i have rebooted meanwhile)

~ $ uname -a
Linux supernova 2.6.31-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Tue Nov 10 19:48:17 CET 2009 i686 Intel(R) Pentium(R) M processor 1.73GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux
~ $ gcc --version
gcc (GCC) 4.4.2

help would be apreciated.

Hi

Try to run both programs with MALLOC_CHECK_=0

example:

MALLOC_CHECK_=0 googleearth

quarkup · 2009-11-12 14:27:46

~ $ MALLOC_CHECK_=0 googleearth
googleearth-bin: malloc.c:3096: sYSMALLOc: Assertion `(old_top == (((mbinptr) (((char *) &((av)->bins[((1) - 1) * 2])) - __builtin_offsetof (struct malloc_chunk, fd)))) && old_size == 0) || ((unsigned long) (old_size) >= (unsigned long)((((__builtin_offsetof (struct malloc_chunk, fd_nextsize))+((2 * (sizeof(size_t))) - 1)) & ~((2 * (sizeof(size_t))) - 1))) && ((old_top)->size & 0x1) && ((unsigned long)old_end & pagemask) == 0)' failed.
Aborted

for the 3d asteroids (my c++/opengl app)

asteroids $ MALLOC_CHECK_=0 ./asteroids.out
freeglut (./asteroids.out): ERROR: Internal error <Visual with necessary capabilities not found> in function fgOpenWindow
Segmentation fault

at least the google earth was working before.. its a long time i dont code or test the asteroids app so im not really sure if it had any bug.

this topic is not solved. just for you to know..

http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/For … te#Bumping

Both look like errors in the actual program that are exposed by the newer glibc to me...

quarkup · 2009-11-12 23:00:31

okay thanks for your reply.

i just bumpd to know if im the only one having this issues.

there is at least one more arch user having this issue.
http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=15270

and im not wanting to disturbe you devs, sorry for bumping.

djgera · 2009-11-12 23:26:48

for google-earth, report to google, and for your C++ programsource: track all memory allocations, free and how is used but maybe the problem is on some library. Check with gdb and/or valgrind.

quarkup · 2009-11-13 12:17:24

well I posted the issue on the google-earth, linux problem's forum.

actually my program was working before and there is another program/game over the net (http://code.google.com/p/roids/) which was working also before.

now it segfaults too.

im going to downgrade the glibc version if possible.

djgera · 2009-11-13 23:53:54

I tested google-earth and works fine here. (but I have an nvidia card using nvidia driver/) -> libgl is provided by nvidia.

Maybe the issue is with libgl

quarkup · 2009-11-14 00:14:50

well my version of the nvidia driver is

~ $ pacman -Qs nvidia
local/nvidia 190.42-1 [9,17 MB]
NVIDIA drivers for kernel26.
local/nvidia-utils 190.42-1 [31,56 MB]
NVIDIA drivers utilities and libraries.

I'm using a nvidia geforce 6800 go..
never had this kind of problem since install of arch (up to 1 year+)

djgera · 2009-11-14 05:20:27

hey!, this is not good.... you have a mix of library version loaded!

b6132000-b6133000 r-xp 00000000 08:02 157035     /usr/lib/tls/libnvidia-tls.so.185.18.14                                 
b6133000-b6134000 rwxp 00000000 08:02 157035     /usr/lib/tls/libnvidia-tls.so.185.18.14                                 
b6134000-b714e000 r-xp 00000000 08:02 108613     /usr/lib/libGLcore.so.190.42                                            
b714e000-b7194000 rwxp 01019000 08:02 108613     /usr/lib/libGLcore.so.190.42

The file /usr/lib/tls/libnvidia-tls.so.185.18.14 is not in nvidia-utils package! delete it.
