glXGetCurrentDisplay() Gives a Segmentation Fault [ Linux ]

Hello,

Sorry for the re-post, I had the first post in the wrong section.

I’m currently working with OpenCL/OpenGL interop and have it working on OSX.

The only difference in the code between the two operating systems can be seen below:

cl_context_properties props[] = {
    0, 0,
    0, 0,
    0, 0,
    0
  };

  if(interop_f){
#ifdef OCL_LINUX
    props[0] = CL_GL_CONTEXT_KHR;
    props[1] = (cl_context_properties) glXGetCurrentContext();
    props[2] = CL_GLX_DISPLAY_KHR;
    props[3] = (cl_context_properties) glXGetCurrentDisplay();
    props[4] = CL_CONTEXT_PLATFORM;
    props[5] = (cl_context_properties) pID;
#endif
#ifdef OCL_OSX
    props[0] = CL_CONTEXT_PROPERTY_USE_CGL_SHAREGROUP_APPLE;
    props[1] = (cl_context_properties) CGLGetShareGroup( CGLGetCurrentContext() );
#endif

    gl_f = 1;

    context = clCreateContext(props, 0, 0, NULL, NULL, &err);
  }
  else
    context = clCreateContext(NULL , 1, &dID, NULL, NULL, &err);

The headers are:

#ifdef OCL_OSX
#include 
#include 
#include 
#include 
#endif

#ifdef OCL_LINUX
#include 
#include 

#include 
#include 
#include 
#endif

The overall code works perfectly using the OSX version on a macbook pro that has with an NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M

When I run this on a Linux machine with a GTX 590, I get a segmentation fault.
More specifically, when calling glXGetCurrentDisplay() I get a segmentation fault.

Here’s what GDB backtrace tells me:

(gdb) r

If anyone can help me with this (seemingly) simple problem, I would be extremely grateful since it has been bothering me for weeks!

Any tips are more than welcome as well!

Thank you in advance!

P.S.
I don’t think the missing on display is the cause of the error since glxgears runs with the same warning.
