Java OpenGL crash (Runescape world map)

[Tim Utschig]

The Java-based 3D online game "Runescape" crashes while attempting to display the world map.

The crash is in i915_dri.so. I'm not sure if the problem is in mesa or Java, so I'm reporting this bug against both.

The current platform I'm using is Ubuntu "jaunty" i386 running on a Dell Optiplex 755, with libgl1-mesa-dri version 7.3-1ubuntu1. However I've also encountered the same crash on Ubuntu 8.04 and with multiple Java versions: JRE 6u10, 6u11 and 6u12.

Below is the beginning of a gdb backtrace. I'm attaching a tarball with the full gdb backtrace, Java error log (hs_err_pid8829.log), Xorg.0.log, ~/.xsession-errors, and "dpkg -l | grep ^ii" output.

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

Hi tim-tetro,

Could you please collect a full backtrace from when this crash occurs? Directions on collecting full backtraces are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Backtracing

A full backtrace is already included in the .tar.gz file I
uploaded.

Please let me know if I should extract it and attach it
separately.

Yes please; it adds extra steps for reviewers and developers when files are attached in tarballs, which adds delay in getting your issue analyzed.

Attaching full backtrace separately.

I don't know if this helps, but the crash does not occur on another system with an ATI graphics card, running the same fully-up-to-date Jaunty, and same version of Java.

I rebuilt the mesa-7.3 packages with -ggdb3 and -DDEVEL to try and get more info in the backtrace. I'm attaching that backtrace.

Now I see that mesa-7.4 packages are available. I installed them. Now Runescape crashes almost immediately, haha. The backtrace is much shorter, and doesn't contain any mesa libraries. May have been the result of a different update. I guess I'll file a different bug for that.
