Public bug reported:
Hi,
On Ubuntu 16.04, VMWare customers are running into a couple of issues:
1. Any app that uses glGenMipmap command will not work properly or crash
(https://communities.vmware.com/thread/537924)
2. vmwgfx_dri.so is sending provoking vertex command when it is not supposed
to.
I have contacted the Mesa maintainer, but unfortunately 11.2.x is no
longer being actively supported, and so I couldn't get the fixes cherry-
picked over.
Is there an internal process in Canonical to cherry-pick fixes over?
To fix the two defects above, please cherry pick the following two commits from
Mesa main:
7988513ac3d86ba367fbe44e73fe483ff96aaa29
ca531aeeb120cdd
-----------------------
1) Description: Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS
Release: 16.04
2) libgl1-mesa-dri:
Installed: 11.2.0-1ubuntu2.2
Candidate: 11.2.0-1ubuntu2.2
Version table:
*** 11.2.0-1ubuntu2.2 500
500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial-updates/main amd64
Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
11.2.0-1ubuntu2 500
500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial/main amd64 Packages
3) Google Earth will run into the glGenMipmap issue, i.e. dmesg will
show "Unsupported command" I'm not sure if the 2nd issue is observable
without a debug build of VMWare software...
4) Through internal testing, the two commits above should the issues
mentioned.
