Hey All linuxers,
I'm getting a lot of segfaults in gem from the latest nvidia drivers, (with gemCVS) is anyone else having these issues? What versions are known to work well with Gem?
hi ben,
maybe your problems are because there is a problem with glibc, TLS and the nvidia glx drivers, it all depends on what u are running on. i recently downgraded my testing to stable again because of this issue (poor linux mans solution :-). if u google for "nvidia TLS bug" u might get a picture. i m using latest drivers with debian stable without complains. you still might try to compile the nvidia drivers with --force-tls=no or classic ? i cant recall (look it up with ./sh NVIDIA-whatever -A) one reason i also downgraded again was that all the sudden my feedback patches got really slow (but was just visible by snapping 1024*1024) , why and how and what i had no time to investigate. best
