Mesa broken by DU? (Resolved)

Cuttlefish · posted: 2011-06-20 00:40

I was doing a few fresh installs when I noticed that my inxi looked kind of strange regarding graphics.

Graphics: Card: ATI M880G [Mobility Radeon HD 4200]
X.Org 1.10.2 drivers loaded: ati,radeon unloaded: fbdev,vesa Resolution 1366x768@60.0hz
GLX Renderer N/A GLX Version N/A

I thought that I had borked my system some how, but it seems that some/one of the latest updates took away my video driver.

I noticed too that some of my xscreensavers stopped working, which I guess makes sense.

I checked the aptosid site and the forum shows this:

========= SCRAPER REMOVED AN EMBEDDED LINK HERE ===========
url was:"http://aptosid.com/index.php?name=PNphpBB2&file=viewtopic&t=1401"
linktext was:"http://aptosid.com/index.php?name=PNphp ... pic&t=1401"
====================================

I'm not sure if the above aptosid posts are related to this issue.

I also noticed that as of the 16th some of the inxis that were posted by forum members were also missing graphics info. I'm also wondering if this is some how related to my chromium browser issue.

Maybe because my card is not ATI and my Kernel Upgrade and Graphics install and dist-upgrade was done in smxi.

Still rocking with AntiX 8.5 core with LXDE though on this Laptop (Amrel rt786ex), but everything else is current.

As of a few 5 mins ago, my Mesa driver was borked. Did a dist-upgrade and now it is fixed. Gotta love those Debian devs.
