I have some problems with the colors in all my Linux systems (Debian, Ubuntu 12.04, 12.10 and 14.04) This concerns in particular the transparent colors in cario dock, as in the audio icon. Can be seen in the attached screenshot. The problem is greatest in xubuntu 14.04 when it is also goes beyond 3D games. I have no problems with gambling and colors in the other installations. Has anyone an idea of what it was due, and whether it can be corrected?

Hi Musa,
This is a Mesa issue. I've created a bug report on freedesktop.org. Bug report 72877:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=72877 and
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/m ... 50363.html. I also created a bug report on bugs.launchpad.net. Bug report #1275042:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+sour ... ug/1275042. Additional I have posted the bug on the Mesa dev mailing list:
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/m ... 55510.html. I have figured out what the problem is and I have fixed the problem in the MesaLib source code. More on
http://forum.hyperion-entertainment.biz ... 137#p23996. I have released some unofficial Mesa packages. Downloads:
http://www.supertuxkart-amiga.de/amiga/ ... icial.html. You could try them if you like.

Install instructions:
http://forum.hyperion-entertainment.biz ... =35&t=2137. If you want that Mesa works system wide then you have to add the line
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH= to the
.profile file in your home directory.
Good luck!
Christian

thanks for your reply Christian.
I have try to install your custom mesalib it has not changed anything. I have now also added the line "export LD_LIBRARY_PATH = / usr/local/mesa10/lib" to .profil in my home directory. That change nothing.
Perhaps there are several mistakes in my 14.04 system.
Running glxgears from terminal gives this output "XIO: fatal IO error 11 (Resource momentarily unavailable) on X server": 0.0 "
after 11448 requests (602 known bearbejdede) with 0 events remaining.
and this
libGL error: failed to load driver: r600
libGL error: Try again with LIBGL_DEBUG = verbose for more details.
libGL error: failed to load driver: swrast
libGL error: Try again with LIBGL_DEBUG = verbose for more details. "
Thanks for trying to help

Sorry, your path is wrong.
Here is the right path to Mesa 10.0.4:
Code: Select all
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/mesa-10.0.4/lib/
Good luck!

Unfortunately Mesa 10.0.4 looks for the r600 driver only in the path "/usr/local/mesa-10.0.4/lib/".

Bingo

Glxgears is ok. Game is ok, but cairo docky still have a strange blue color where they should be where transparent. I can live with that.
Many thanks I owe you a beer
