285.03: X Server 1.11.0 IgnoreABI required to work
 

The problem: Nvidia driver 285.03
================ WARNING WARNING WARNING WARNING ================
This server has a video driver ABI version of 11.0 that this
driver does not officially support. Please check
http://www.nvidia.com/ for driver updates or downgrade to an X
server with a supported driver ABI.
================================================== ===============
[ 3833.424] (WW) NVIDIA: The driver will continue to load, but may behave strangely.
[ 3833.424] (WW) NVIDIA: This driver was compiled against the X.Org server SDK from git commit b6c7b9b2f39e970cedb6bc1e073f901e28cb0fa3 and may not be compatible with the final version of this SDK.
[ 3833.424] (WW) NVIDIA: This server has an unsupported input driver ABI version (have 13.0, need < 13.0). The driver will continue to load, but may behave strangely.

The workaround:

Also with ignoreABI, my xfce is doing strange renderings on the desktop.
So i have x downgraded to 1.10.4 and will wait for a driver, which is supporting 1.11.

heads up 1.11 just hit Debian Sid ;)

Unfortunately, there was a change to a data structure without a corresponding change to the extension module ABI version that breaks GLX. It's not exactly clear whether this structure counts as part of the extension ABI, so I need to get to the bottom of that before a driver with official xserver 1.11 support can be released. It may be that we need to skip xserver 1.11.0 if my hunch is correct and this is a bug in the X server.

Phoronix says:
Source link: X Server 1.11 Breaks The Video Driver ABI

Because the tracked down change is intentional I do not think so it will be removed in later releases. So update to Nvidia seems to be required and not temporary. Intel video driver rebuild on my netbook against xorg 11 is working with new xorg.

It's not the ABI change itself that's the problem, it's that combined with the fact that the extension ABI version number (which is the one libglx looks at) was not changed at the same time. I sent out a change to do that, but it's too late for the 1.11.0 release. Fortunately, working around the problem in libglx shouldn't be too hard and official support should appear in a release hopefully fairly soon.

If i understand right, even if i rebuild xserver 1.11 with your patch, the driver would not work?

Re: 285.03: X Server 1.11.0 IgnoreABI required to work
 

Right. All the public released drivers still have that version marked as unofficial. You'll need to wait for a future release.

while trying to access the OpenGL/GLX information using ignore ABI on X 1.11 :(

/after some reboots it works ok...strange

Re: 285.03: X Server 1.11.0 IgnoreABI required to work
 

So where would the fix be coming from, Xorg, Nvidia or both?

I am currently running 1.11 X with ignoreABI option. It seems OK but I am not using too much GL, just the screen saver and mplayer vo.

Thanks.

Re: 285.03: X Server 1.11.0 IgnoreABI required to work
 

The new beta driver fixed that.

Thanks.
