Menu and Text will not show up

[Gusar]

The initial requirement of GSdx was 3.3 + GL4 extensions. But I wanted to test it on Mesa so I reduce the requirement to GL3.0 + lots of GL3+ extensions but I didn't update the code to require those 3.x extensions at the startup.

Ah! That makes a lot of sense. Thank you for the explanation.

@Musten, Gusar
Can you copy/paste the terminal output of GM45 system without the mesa override.

Here you go:

Code:

Failed to create the opengl context. Check your drivers support openGL 3.3. Hint: opensource drivers don't
libEGL warning: failed to create a pipe screen for i965

Geometry shaders are not supported. Required openGL 3.2
OPENGL 3.0 is not supported

And a popup window appears saying GS plugin failed to open.

With the override, there's just tons of these:

Code:

error: extension `GL_ARB_uniform_buffer_object' unsupported in vertex shader

Also, maybe it's useful, full glxinfo output:

ZZOgl works, but it's waaaaay too slow, 5fps in the bios, 12fps in FFX-2.

I don't have Windows on this machine anymore, but when I did I remember testing GSdx with Direct3D, FFX actually ran at 50fps most of the time.

[gregory]

And a popup window appears saying GS plugin failed to open.

It is the expexted behavior. I was afraid it doesn't work.

With the override, there's just tons of these:

Yep, it miss UBO extension support and probably a couple of others. And unfortunately I don't think mesa will support it for those older chips. On windows it is must easier the chip got a full driver People will upgrade in 1 years or 2 anyway

Running ZZ Ogl PG 0.4.0 [libzzogl-0.4.0] I got:


Text broken and 3D OK, but notice the difference in the display of the board squares, they have an outline, drawing the potential square a little better than just the full shadow shown with the Intel Corporation 2nd Generation Core Processor Family Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 09); Linux Mint 15 XFCE with kernel 3.12.6-031206-generic; OpenGL version string: 3.0 Mesa 9.2.0; X.Org X Server 1.13.4; Current version of pixman: 0.28.2.

[gregory]

Can you generate me a gdb backtrace of GSdx crash? Attach gdb when the assertion windows pop up and dump all thread (thread apply all bt full).

I'm bit lost, the 2nd picture is on zzogl or GSdx?

[Musten]

Pictures are on zzogl both, GSdx crashes in both systems.
The Intel GM45 system shows the squares and outlines without the colors and pictures of the squares, the sandy bridge graphics system just shows a full dark shadow.
Please, tell me how to generate the gdb backtrace, I have no clue how to do what you asked me.
When pcsx2 crashes, I can copy the popped up window message, but I am not able to copy the full text from the console, any button I press exits the program.
Thanks.

[gregory]

Zzogl need texture float maybe it isn't activated on 1 driver system.

For gdb it is easy, run pcsx2 until the popup. Go into another xterminal
Use the following command to attach a gdb to your current pcsx2 program (depends on the executable name on your system)

Code:

gdb pcsx2 `pidof pcsx2`

Then just use to get the trace

Code:

thread apply all bt full

[Musten]

I am sorry I am a bit lost here.
I enter gdb pcsx2 'pidof pcsx2' in the terminal and it tells me there is no such file or directory.
When it says it is reading /usr/games/pcsx2, it also says that no debugging symbols where found. (Notice it is a free translation, I don't get the message in English).

Maybe...

[gregory]

Which command to you use to launch pcsx2 (pcsx2, pcsx2-dbg, others?). You need to use this one in the gdb command. Maybe you might need the relative path.
For example somethings like that

Code:

gdb /home/gregory/emulator/bin/pcsx2 `pidof pcsx2`

Edit: you need to launch pcsx2 before gdb and then attach gdb to the pcsx2 process.
If it is still complaining about symbol you might need a debug build (but normally you must be already have them)

[Musten]

I installed from ppa (pcsx2-unstable), so pcsx2 is at /usr/games/ I think.
I am afraid I have no debug build.
I give that path but the issue I think it is on the pidof statement, it keeps saying no such file or directory.
I am sorry I don't know what the pidof is, but it seems it insists on looking at it by the /home/user/ folder.
Maybe it is the lack of a debug build, but I have no idea about all this.

[gregory]

Did you try to install: pcsx2-unstable-dbg?
pidof just get the pid of pcsx2, you can get it with a "ps aux |grep pcsx2" (2nd column) otherwise
