Description:

This recent mesa upgrade seems to break 3d acceleration on savage cards. As far as I can tell, all 3d applications, including mesa utils (glxinfo/glxgears) abort shortly after returning an assertion of: "../common/drirenderbuffer.c:69: driNewRenderbuffer: Assertion `format == 0x1908 || format == 0x8050 || format == 0x8058 || format == 0x81A5 || format == 0x81A6 || format == 0x81A7 || format == 0x8D48' failed"


Additional info:
* package version(s): mesa 7.7-1, libgl 7.7-1, savage-dri 7.7-1, xorg-server 1.7.3.902-1

Steps to reproduce:
1. Be fortunate enough to own a piece of hardware with an S3 chipset.
2. pacman -Syyu
3. Attempt to run any application that uses 3d acceleration... voila

I'll be more than happy to provide any additional information if needed.
This task depends upon

Here's just a tad bit of real console output. Although it's probably unlikely it will help.
Also I'm attaching my Xorg.0.log, which is a tad bit confusing, as the savage xorg module reports direct rendering is enabled.

Please try if recompiling the xf86-video-xxx pkg solves it. Your Xorg log looks ok.

Just rebuilt xf86-video-savage using the pkgbuild in the abs... no dice, still the same issue. Also rebuilt mesa with -g in my cflags/cxxflags via the pkgbuild in the abs, and ran a gdb backtrace of glxinfo... Sorry, as this is an incomplete backtrace, I can't really figure out which libraries I'm going to need to rebuild with debugging symbols included. But hopefully it will give someone an idea of where the problem may reside.

Happened to me on my Intel 815 on-board 64mb card. Downgrading both intel-dri and libgl solved the issue.

martin, downgrading mga-dri and libgl solves this for me too, thanks

confirmed this also with my i810 chip, get the same output with glxinfo/glxgears.

Hi - confirmed with an S3 Inc. VT8375 [ProSavage8 KM266/KL266] -- same output with glxinfo, downgrading to mesa 7.6.1 sorts it.

Confirmed with an MGA G400.

Downgrading to libgl 7.6-2 and mga-dri 7.6-2 provides a fix.

VGA compatible controller: Matrox Graphics, Inc. MGA G400/G450 (rev 04)

please check mesa 7.7.1rc1 in testing. maybe we need to recompile the ddx driver for this.

Yes, the libgl and mga-dri in testing does seem to work with Matrox G550.
