Nvidia opengl no longer working (segfaults) [solved] [UPDATE]

UPDATE:
Reference Gentoo bug for temporary resolution:
https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=350336
I can't seem to run any openGL apps any more after a recent update. Current nvidia driver 275.09.07-1, tried kernel26 (from testing), kernel26-ck, and kernel26-bfs same results. Running glxinfo or glxgears causes a segfault (noted below). Most GL apps note "error 4 in libnvidia-glcore" before immediately quitting. Running on 64bit system and nouveau drivers handle GL like they should without error.
glxinfo[2121]: segfault at fffffffffffffff8 ip 00007fd314348754 sp 00007fff5294cdf0 error 4 in libnvidia-glcore.so.275.09.07[7fd31336d000+15d4000]
glxgears[2123]: segfault at 0 ip (null) sp 00007fffcc652938 error 14 in glxgears[400000+4000]
Anyone else having this problem? Thinking about a bug report.

I thought that the xorg server version could be the issue in some strange way so I updated my laptop and everything works fine on it. Using the same nvidia driver and kernel as the desktop (albeit slightly different graphic card). Strange. I'm not nor have I been using LTS, and the xserver has been upgraded since last month- not sure why this would happen all of a sudden.
UPDATE:
Downgrading to to the nvidia package version 270.41.19 fixes the problem. I think it's specific to my model video card (GeForce GT 220). An issue with nvidia has been entered (Issue Reference #110628-000170)

  • Why would you allow firefox to update computer web-browsers if you have an idea that it will no longer work after the update? And why would you not include instructions for, how to fix the problem? Help Please! Can I go back to the old one?

    Mozilla, like many other software companies, thoroughly test their software before releasing it to the public and I'm sure that no problem you are having is intentional.
    I do not work for Mozilla but I do have experience of releasing software for public usage.
    Firefox has no way of knowing what other software is already on your computer and with millions of combinations it isn't always possible to test for every scenario.
    You can go back to the old version of Firefox but that won't always solve your problem.
    The web site below tells you how:

  • Syncing with iPad mini does no longer work since latest update of iTunes

    Syncing with iPad mini does no longer work since latest update of iTunes and iPad mini

    Hi grecokev,
    Thank you for contributing to the Apple Support Communities.
    You mention that your iPod nano is no longer recognized by iTunes after an update. Reinstalling iTunes is a good troubleshooting step, and if the device still doesn't appear in iTunes, try the following steps next:
    Turn off your computer and your iOS device or iPod, then turn them on again.
    Check to make sure that you've installed all required updates for your computer.
    Verify that the 30-pin to USB cable or Lightning Connector to USB cable is free of debris and not damaged. If another cable is available, test with that cable instead.
    USB cables that are bundled with third-party products or accessories might work only to charge those products and might not transmit data. Also, if you're using a third-party case or extended battery pack, try removing the case and connecting the Apple-supplied USB cable directly to your device.
    You can find these steps in this troubleshooting article:
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod not recognized in iTunes for Windows - Apple Support
    If the steps above don't solve it, see the section of the article called "Verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is installed" for some additional steps to try on your PC.
    Best Regards,
    Jeremy

  • We recently updated to Lion, prior to this update we could plug in our Sony Mini DV camera using the appropriate firewire and the iMovie would recognize the camera. This function no longer works after the update to Lion. Any suggestions?

  • HT201365 The keyboard on my phone no long works since ios7 update, I switched phone off to reset why

    Keyboard on my phone no longer works since ios7 update. Advice please

    Can you be more specific? Not in any application? Like writing an email, entering an address into Safari, sending a text message ...
    If you touch a certain spot in those apps, the keyboard should slide up from the bottom.
    If still not, what about restarting the phone? Does that help?

  • Devilspie no longer working? [solved]

    Did configuration change again? Because my xmms script is no longer working for devilspie(then again no scipts are working). Heres my xmms script:
    1 (if (is (application_name) "XMMS")
    2 (begin
    3 (skip_pager)
    4 (skip_tasklist)
    5 (below)
    6 (pin)
    7 )
    8 )
    This simple script used to work, I supposed I did notice this once I switched to pypanel, but I believe the script worked the first couple of times, it's supposed to hide xmms from the pager / tasklist but it isn't doing so.

    Global Havok wrote:Still working fine for me... I don't believe there has been a devilspie update recently either.  Any major changes in your setup lately?
    Other than switching from fbpane to pypanel, no. Altleaste not that I know of
    edit
    Apparently it's just a pypanel related problem. Guess I'll have to change panels once again ;(
    edit
    Well, I guess pypanel has it's own option to hide windows fromt he tastklist, so I just did that instead. Problem solved.

  • Airport no longer working after latest updates

    After my latest software updates, the Airport on my 13" Macbook is no longer working.
    I can connect to networks and can get full signal from the wireless router in my home, yet none of my browsers can actually connect to the internet.
    I've tried multiple wireless connections and none function properly. Suggestions?
    I'm currently connected directly to my NETGEAR router via ethernet

    Experiencing similar issue.
    Wired works forever without any issue. Wireless (airport) works for a while (random 2-60 minutes, could be related to data volume) then gets stuck. At that point getting back to wire (without reseting the airport AP) solves it. Also, cycling the airport client (disable/enable) gets it to work for a few minutes... until it gets stuck again. Other devices (iPhone, iPod touch) connected to the same airport AP do get access while the macbook is stuck.
    Thought this could be 11n related since the macbook is the only device running 11n. However, while wireless http/web access is stuck on the macbook one can still perform ftp connections (bit no file transfer as such), pings and/or access the time machine configuration (some of this seems to be randomly working) from that macbook. Not sure whether 11n handles short bursts and large bursts differently?
    Finally, the behaviour is the same whether using Safari or Firefox and relaunching eitehr app does not solve it.
    Clueless for now.

  • TS3771 My iTunes U no longer works since the update, an error message pops up saying that "This movie requires QuickTime, which is not supported by this version of iTunes." I followed the tutorial that suggests to change to from 64 to 32 bit and it didn't

    iTunes U video files no longer work on my computer since i update to Mavericks. The following message appears on the screen "This movie requires QuickTime, which is not supported by this version of iTunes." I followed a tutorial that suggested to go to Applications/iTunes/Get Info and change to 32 bit. Now my iTunes does not open at all, it says it requires 64 bit. I am a bit confused and disappointed. What should I do to get it fixed? Buy a new MacBook?

    Marcello, I am having the same problem.  When following the advice of many in the community to start iTunes in 32-bit mode, I get the following error after I have done so:
    I am running 10.9.2 on a mac mini. 
    I am hoping this will be fixed or at least a solid answer could be given that iTunes will no longer support certain types of media going foward.

  • Menu bar no longer working with IE update

    With the recent update in IE my main menu bar is no longer working, the "hover" function is not working and looks like the links are broken, but the links do work if you actually click on them.  From my vista machine it is OK but from my XP machine it does not show as being a link. The submenu's however do still work, here is the code, the first line is from the main menu and doesn't work, the 2nd line is a submenu and does work.
    Here is the site www.conundrumadventures.com
    From the main menu this is the code for "Adventures":
    <td id="002" class="link4" onclick="location.href='Teambuilding-Exercises-Adventures.php'"; onmouseover="changeC('002','link4h');" onmouseout="changeC('002','link4');" >Adventures</td>
            </tr>
            <tr>
    From within the adventures page here is the code for the submenu for  "Conundrum Metro":
              <td id="303" class="Sublink4" onclick="location.href='Outdoor-Team-Building.php'"; onmouseover="subchangeC('303','Sublink4h');" onmouseout="subchangeC('303','Sublink4');" >Conundrum Metro</td>
            </tr>
    Any ideas how to fix the main menu bar?
    Thanks
    Lynn

    I recommend doing away with your mouseover/mouseout links and convert to using Cascading Style Sheets.
    Here is a link to CSS tutorials: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/dreamweaver/css.html
    You don't say whether you are using Dreamweaver CS4 or an earlier version, but even if you are using that earlier version, you can type the code in yourself. Look especially at the tutorial chain "Designing with CSS", as there is a module that talks about a menu bar and how to make the links.
    Best wishes,

  • Apple Wireless Bluetooth Keyboard no longer works after OSX update

    After installing the latest OSX update yesterday (something about iChat encryption), Apple Bluetooth Keyboard no longer works with my iMac.
    When I restarted the iMac after installation was completed, the iMac would no longer recognise my Bluetooth Apple wireless keyboard. I've tried with 2 other Apple wireless keyboards as well, but to no avail. None of them work with the iMac any longer. All 3 keyboards work with my PowerMac Quad G5 though.
    The iMac "sees" the keyboards, but the pairing doesn't go through because the iMac doesn't seem to recognise the keystrokes when entering the pairing code.
    I had to go out and buy myself a Microsoft wired keyboard to be able to restart the iMac (couldn't enter the login password without a keyboard).
    My bluetooth mighty mouse works flawlessly though.
    Very frustrating. Can anyone help?

  • Send link function no longer works after last update (7.0.1). Has always worked till now. Outlook is set as default email (as before).

    Send link function no longer working since update to 7.0.1. Always worked till now...I use Outlook as default mail client, and have not changed any settings since original setup. This is very frustrating! Any help will be appreciated.

    You can try running the combo updater over your install but you might need to re-install Lion. Both options should not erase your data but if you do the re-install of Lion it's recommended that you backup first as a precaution.

    To re-install, boot into the Recovery drive and select to Reinstall OS X.
    Hold down Command R when restarting to enter Recovery drive.
