GNOME applications, like Videos (Totem), do not start with nvidia driver

Hello,

GNOME applications seem to not start with nvidia driver. Particularly Videos (Totem), and I also suspect Cheese is also the case. The application neither start from the desktop environment nor command line.

Totem developers, based on GNOME/Videos stacktrace, suggest it is a bug in nvidia libGL implementation, could you please verify that?

GNOME/Videos stacktrace used:

Thank you for any help.

Thanks for reporting this. It’s being tracked in bug 1357836.

Thank you for paying attention. I am sorry I couldn’t be more helpful.

I am really sorry I have just realised that I have got an incorrect (legacy) driver installed (it is also shown in the bug report log). After “normal” driver has been installed the GNOME applications work/start well.

I am sorry once more.

Thanks, peartown. This is actually an issue that was debugged and fixed in later releases, but we’re looking into the feasibility of backporting the fix to the legacy branch.

Thank you for explanation. IMHO that would be good news for the users of legacy driver(s).
