LIBGL_DRIVERS_PATH is missing /usr/lib32/dri on amd64

[Scott Ritchie]

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-ati

Several users running Wine are reporting that GL is not working for them on this driver and that they are instead getting software rendering (which Wine now helpfully warns about): https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wine1.2/+bug/506320

Wine needs the 32 bit version of the dri library to be useful, however it seems that this folder is not exported in the path.

See also a similar fglrx bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fglrx-installer/+bug/250944 and the Wine bug that inspired this https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wine1.2/+bug/506320 (posts after 19)

Is there a workaround for this?

[jtuchscherer (jtuchscherer)]

Just responding to myself here:

I found an acceptable workaround. I downloaded and installed the catalyst driver from ati's web site. The installer script for this driver puts the fglrx_dri.so into the /usr/lib32/dri/ as well as in the /usr/lib/dri. Now everything works again.

[Scott Ritchie (scottritchie)]

Marking medium -- this has a fairly straightforward fix I believe, so it should be doable by someone without too much effort.

[Chris Halse Rogers (raof)]

This should be fixed in Maverick and in 10.04 with mesa 7.7.1-1ubuntu1 package.

If this is still a problem, please re-open and we'll need to work out why.

[Tim Kornhammar (tim-kornhammar)]

It is not working for me..

I'm using xorg-edgers version of the driver, it is a later version but it shouldn't matter.

Ubuntu 10.10 on amd64.

I've tried to find answers through Google and two of them where about the paths.
With LIBGL_DRIVERS_PATH set to /usr/lib/dri, /usr/lib32/dri

xorg-edgers and wine ppa have conflicting versions of ia32-libs, it absolutely does matter

I could add the missing library to the Wine PPA version of ia32-libs, though. It's on my list.

[Tim Kornhammar (tim-kornhammar)]

Oh, missed that I used their version of ia32-libs, sorry.

But which library is missing? That way it is no hurry, at least for me, to rebuild ia32-libs, and I could ask them to include it as well.

[Tim Kornhammar (tim-kornhammar)]

Just for information I added the package libxcb-glx to ia32-libs and put my own build up at:

https://launchpad.net/~freshwine/+archive/ppa

It works great and it is a solution until when Scott has the time to update the original package.
