This occurs systematically when using nvidia's X driver (installed using the Dapper packages). When using "nv", openoffice runs successfully.
This behaviour has been ongoing since roughly Feb 15th, following several updates to the mesa libs & other x.org related libraries.
I susoect this is related to OpenGL or the nvidia driver itself, as since that time, 2 GL intensive games by iDsoftware that were able to run with ia32-libs ceased functioning, both with a segfault on libGL.so.1
Purging all ia32 related libs (including Openoffice), the nvidia related packages and reinstalling them does not fix the problem.
Changed in ia32-libs: | |
status: | Unconfirmed → Confirmed |
Looks for me to be the same as my Bug #33330?
