CreateDrawable failing with old DRI

[Ben Gamari]


Has anyone found that since DRI2 was merged, CreateDrawable failed with
the old DRI. The problem seems to be that driCreateDrawable fails all
requests where xDrawable != drawable (dri_glx.c:943) because of DRI
restrictions with GLX 1.3+. How is this supposed to work?

This error occurs with compiz, resulting in a white desktop and windows
and numerous error messages of "failed to create drawable." I've tried
tracing this with a debugger but I'm afraid I came to a dead-end when I
attempted to find the source of driCreateDrawable's 'drawable' argument.
It seems it comes from NewPixmap in the xserver, but I can't find any
recent changes in this function that might have caused the old DRI to
break. Odd

P.S. Indeed, it seems that similar issues (although with more
descriptive errors) are occurring when used with DRI2 and the
intel-batchbuffer branch.
