Alacritty won't start - found no glX extensions #80702

Closed karolchmist closed 4 years ago

karolchmist commented 4 years ago

Describe the bug

Since last update on nixos-unstable, I can't launch Alacritty. I get this error:

Alacritty encountered an unrecoverable error:
         Error creating GL context; Received multiple errors. Errors: `[OsError("Could not create EGL display object"), OsError("`glXQueryExtensionsString` found no glX extensions")]`

cc @filalex77 @Mic92

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. run alacritty

Metadata

Mic92 commented 4 years ago

It might be the case that it does not find your opengl driver. The same version works on my system (TM).

$ alacritty  --version
alacritty 0.4.1

First of all verify that alacritty finds your opengl driver.

Oh, and I have a previous version of alacritty:

alacritty  --version
alacritty 0.4.0
Mic92 commented 4 years ago

It should load at least one graphics driver from /run/opengl-driver/lib/dri (i915_dri.so in my case). It does not do so on your machine. I am not an expert on graphic cards but somebody else might able to help you if you also share your details on your graphic card (Nvidia, Intel integrated graphic card etc).

karolchmist commented 4 years ago

Ok, thanks @Mic92 ! I have Intel HD Graphics 530, but not sure which driver corresponds to it... Will rollback to the previous generation of Nixos and check.

BTW, can't run those commands either:

➜  ~ glxinfo                                                                                                                                                                   ~

Mic92 commented 4 years ago

Do you have this set? https://github.com/Mic92/dotfiles/blob/master/nixos/modules/intel-graphics.nix#L5 We also have https://github.com/NixOS/nixos-hardware/ which might help getting opengl to work for some devices.

karolchmist commented 4 years ago

My hardware-configuration.nix:

  boot.initrd.availableKernelModules = [ "xhci_pci" "ahci" "sd_mod" "rtsx_pci_sdmmc" ];
  boot.kernelModules = [ "kvm-intel" ];
  boot.extraModulePackages = [ ];
  boot.blacklistedKernelModules = ["mei_wdt"];

I rollbacked to previous working NixOS generation and I have this:

➜  ~ glxinfo | grep -i vendor                                                                                                              ~

So I'll add i965 to kernelModules and see if it works.

I tried with kernelModule i965, and pkgs.vaapiIntel to opengl, still the same. I'll try more stuff this weekend, thanks @Mic92 for your help!

But on my current generation (nixpkgs e2b4abe3c8f) it tries all of these:

I experienced a similar problem with glxinfo, glxgears, and steam installed by nix-env. Forcibly upgrading them by nix-env -u ... --always fixed the issue.

It seems that the problem was caused by the application and its dependencies linking to an older version of glibc than what /run/opengl-driver/lib/libGLX_mesa.so.0 links to, though I'm not entirely sure how all of this works.

$ objdump -x glxgears-fail | grep glibc

I confirm that nix-env -u ... --always fixes the problem.

There is a thread on discourse that explains the reasons behind this kind of problems with libGL: https://discourse.nixos.org/t/libgl-undefined-symbol-glxgl-core-functions/512/6

I'll close this issue as there is apparently no solution.

I also recommend using tools like home-manager over nix-env to maintain packages. This usually avoids having to remember updating packages.

I have just started getting this error on NixOS VM after yesterday's update with the nixos-unstable.

tartavull commented 3 years ago

Seeing this when using a non-NixOs system with home-manager. How did you solve it?

alexvorobiev commented 3 years ago

@tartavull I didn't want to install yet another terminal so I temporarily switched to Emacs' vterm. At some point in the last few weeks alacritty from the unstable channel started working again.

tartavull commented 3 years ago

I'm on unstable and it doesn't work for me :(

martsa1 commented 2 years ago

I'm seeing this when attempting to install alacritty via home-manager on Ubuntu (the exact same home-manager config on a NixOS machine works flawlessly).

NixGL does allow things to work, but it'd be nice to get a native solution.

I tried with nixgl and couldn't solve it. Same problem, home-manager on Ubuntu. Could you detail how you solved it when you have a moment ? (I tried re-installing the gpu (nvidia) drivers and I've verifed that the driver works properly).

I just went through this, so here is how I solved it Add it to your inputs Add as an overlay Install it in packages

After that it works with nixGL alacritty. I also updated the app menu in KDE so that it starts it that way as well. Hope that helps.

This seems to work for sway and fixing this at the launcher level probably also fixes a lot of other packages, too...

set $term          nixGLIntel alacritty
set $menu          'dmenu_path | wofi --show dmenu -i | xargs swaymsg exec nixGLIntel --'
