Glest doesn't start: GL_ARB_texture_env_crossbar not supported.

[LordFiodor]

Hi everyone,
always when I try to startup Glest I get the Following Output:
$ glest
libGL warning: 3D driver claims to not support visual 0x5b
Exception: OpenGL extension not supported: GL_ARB_texture_env_crossbar, required for Glest

So does this mean I can't play Glest at all because of a poor Graphics Card (Intel GMA 915GM) or do I have to install the extension?

[pacmannia]

I have the same problem. Has anyone have a solution??

[djibi]

Hi,
I've got the same problem and the same graphic card.
Help please!

[Stephen Howard]

could you provide a copy of the output from: glxinfo

Why this extension is not included in i915 driver? I added it to sources,
recompiled and tested with www.glest.org, it seems to be ok, so I think it could
be included into Mesa/src/mesa/drivers/dri/i915/i915_context.c:

I honestly don't know what to say about that one! My stars and crossbars that's odd. =)

thanks for the answer.

There are a few fixes around similar to the one linked to by Mongoose, but you'll need to download mesa, figure out how to patch it and then figure out how to compile it. Its beyond my patience I'm afraid.

[djibi]

ok, so, I've to search.
I think I will give up because it looks too complicated for me and my basic knowledges.
If someone can explain me how fix it and intall mesa, it would be wonderfull ;-)
thanks for the answer Stephen Howard

Yeah, I just googled that to see what that GPU supported in it's extentions. I'm an Nvidia or nothing guy, so I was curious. I see what I assume is part of a software fallback and I'm sort of shocked:

1) It's not already being used upstream
2) Reminds me of d3d. =)

[almkglor]

...hey... any updates on this one?
