--- Comment #7 from Elven Decker <sailing at together.net> --- Good news and bad news, and light at the end of the tunnel LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE was getting set to one in /etc/X11/Xsession.d/50_check_unity_support. So I overrode the value as below: cat 50_check_unity_support # This file is sourced by Xsession(5), not executed. # If the hardware does not pass unity_support_test, fall back to LLVMpipe # which does. if [ "x$DESKTOP_SESSION" = "xubuntu" ]; then /usr/lib/nux/unity_support_test || export LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=1 fi export LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=0 which set LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE to zero: printenv | grep ALWAYS LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=0 Unfortunately there was no change in the behavior of the system and we still see unity not supported... /usr/lib/nux/unity_support_test -p OpenGL vendor string: VMware, Inc. OpenGL renderer string: Gallium 0.4 on llvmpipe (LLVM 3.3, 128 bits) OpenGL version string: 2.1 Mesa 9.2.1 Not software rendered: no Not blacklisted: yes GLX fbconfig: yes GLX texture from pixmap: yes GL npot or rect textures: yes GL vertex program: yes GL fragment program: yes GL vertex buffer object: yes GL framebuffer object: yes GL version is 1.4+: yes Unity 3D supported: no LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose glxinfo 2>&1 >/dev/null libGL: OpenDriver: trying /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/dri/tls/swrast_dri.so libGL: OpenDriver: trying /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/dri/swrast_dri.so based on your comment about the r300 driver, I tried a forced loading of R300 by putting it into an xorg.conf... in Xorg.0.log we see [ 54.122] (II) LoadModule: "r300" [ 54.122] (WW) Warning, couldn't open module r300 [ 54.122] (II) UnloadModule: "r300" [ 54.123] (II) Unloading r300 [ 54.123] (EE) Failed to load module "r300" (module does not exist, 0) I'm clearly missing a package... which one??
