            Bug ID: 76698
          Assignee: mesa-dev at lists.freedesktop.org
           Summary: DRI loader prints misleading error message
          Severity: normal
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: All
          Reporter: stefan.bruens at rwth-aachen.de
          Hardware: Other
            Status: NEW
           Version: git
         Component: Mesa core
           Product: Mesa

Created attachment 96469
  --> https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=96469&action=edit
Proposed patch (git format-patch)

The DRI loader allows to specify multiple search paths for the drivers, either
using LIBGL_DRIVERS_PATH or using the corresponding ./configure option.

If one of the attempts fail, an error message is printed on stderr:

ErrorMessageF("dlopen %s failed (%s)\n", realDriverName, dlerror());

, even when the next attempt may succeed.

When all pathes have been tried, an error message is printed, so the log level
for the transient error should be lowered.
