Bug Description

Tested on two notebooks.
Bug appears only in the 13.04 version. 12.10 is OK.
Dubblechecked by booting a 12.10 version on USB stick (on the 13.04 notebooks).
Problem:
OpenGl shading language (GLSL) uniform variables seem to stay undefined, or lose their value somewhere.
Tested with a WebGl app as well as a C++ (Qt) application.
This bug is also reported a driver issue.
If it is related to this driver issue, why is the (old) buggy driver re-installed with 13.04?
thanks.

I have filed the bug at https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=70322, because I think it related to mesa.
Still, also affects the ubuntu upgrade to 13.4.
I downgraded back to 12.10 in order to keep openGl working.

This has been fixed upstream in Mesa 10.4, which should eventually make it's way into Ubuntu 15.04 "Vivid Vervet". You can track that at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mesa
