Hi all!

First of all thanks for the quick response!

Ahh, first problem found:

$ dpkg -l libdrm1
ii  libdrm1        1.0.3-3   ...

but the above page states I need at least >= 1.0.5

But  ...

It is version 1.2

But using LIBGL_DEBUG I found a mor serious problem:

$ LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose
$ export LIBGL_DEBUG
$ glxinfo
libGL: XF86DRIGetClientDriverName: 5.0.0 unichrome (screen 0)
libGL: OpenDriver: trying /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/dri/unichrome_dri.so
libGL error: dlopen /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/dri/unichrome_dri.so failed (/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/dri/unichrome_dri.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory)
libGL error: unable to find driver: unichrome_dri.so


So the unichrome_dri.so is missing. Is it missing only from the debian
packages, or is it thought to be like this, i.e. do I have to install it
separately?

Best wishes

Norbert
