Is anyone else seeing this issue? I'm running into it
on desktop boxes and a laptop running 4.8-RELEASE with
up to date ports collections and various versions of
DRI installed over a ports version of X. I'm also seeing
this under 5.1-RELEASE on the laptop.
Everything works perfectly unless/until I restart the X
server. This appears to be initiated automatically when
running GDM -- ie, GDM starts, you log in using that X
session, you log out and the session stops, GDM starts X
again and displays the login screen.
This seems to happen a bit more than 1/3 of the times I
try it (intentionally or not). It isn't much of a problem
on the laptop as I'm the only user and tend to turn the
machine off when I log out but it is causing all sorts of
issues on the desktops because they are intended to be
used as multi-user (serially and also simultaneously)
systems.
Any ideas? The instability goes away completely with DRI
disabled, but part of the use of these desktops is in the
accelerated OpenGL rendering...
