I also installed mesa drivers (same version as above) from x-swat at https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat/+archive/x-updates. My hardware is Thinkpad T41 with ATI Radeon Mobility 9000 (M9) Lf (AGP) chipset 32MB.
With new drivers, Blender v2.49b works, but version 2.5-alpha0 still segfaults after producing following error: [driAllocateTexture:635] unable to allocate texture This is odd, since the graphics card seems to be the same as above. Also tried to take a backtrace with gdb, but this time it freezed my computer entirely.. :( -- blender-bin crashed with SIGSEGV in GPU_state_init() https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/446632 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to mesa in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
