minimal-gtk demo shows grey map
Last modified: 2016-08-21 19:11:20 UTC
Hi, minimal-gtk shows a grey map and nothing else. minimal is working as expected. Clutter: 1.2.12 Clutter-GTK: 0.10.4 (Running ubuntu maverick)
Samething for launcher(-gtk) actually
Are you on Maverick? I had the very same problem - my impression is that the version of clutter-gtk (0.10.4) in Maverick doesn't work with the shipped clutter version (1.2.12). I made several experiments compiling different versions of clutter-gtk manually some time ago: * 0.10.4 - doesn't work * 0.10.6 - works * even compiling clutter-gtk demos from 0.10.4 tarballs and linking them against the system clutter-gtk (0.10.4) doesn't work I wasn't sure if it was just me (because nobody has complained so far) but it appears to be a more general problem. As a workaround you can compile clutter-gtk 0.10.6 (and possibly 0.10.8 - I just haven't tested it) but this should be reported as a bug in Maverick.
Ok I can confirm that it's working again with clutter-gtk 0.10.8
It could be interesting to confirm this bug in debian unstable (looks like clutter{gtk} is (heavily) patched in ubuntu
Looks like a bug[0] is already opened in ubuntu a workaround exists setting the environment variable CLUTTER_VBLANK=none [0]https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/clutter-gtk-0.10/+bug/603507
Thanks for the investigation. Regarding your previous comment, even though I haven't tested the debian unstable packages, the vanilla 0.10.4 built from sources doesn't work either. So I think this bug isn't caused by any specific Ubuntu patch.
I have the same problem with Fedora 14 (current beta) and Emerillon.
