Failed to run examples/SimplePlot in ubuntu20.04

[bereze]

When I run examples/SimplePlot in ubuntu20.04, I got errors and the program seems to be stuck:

Process finished with exit code 134 (interrupted by signal 6: SIGABRT)

But I can run other examples successfully, which confused me..

I would need more info to be able to help. Compiling in debug and providing a stack-trace would be a good way to understand what's going on. Is there no further text output on the console? Presumably your graphics driver doesn't like one of the opengl calls used in the plotter application and Pangolin is asserting a GL error, perhaps?

Thank you for your reply. I followed your request, compiled the example in debug and used gdb to print the stack-trace which looks like:

I used Clion to debug the program, and the program stops here:

void X11Window::SwapBuffers() {
    glXSwapBuffers(display->display, win);  // Stucked
}

My gpu is Mesa Intel® Graphics (RKL GT1). Is there anything incompatible here?

Interesting - googling, I've found a few references to similar issues (such as https://github.com/yuzu-emu/yuzu/issues/7738#issuecomment-1016393296), though they don't seem to have great solutions. I'm inclined to think it is a graphics driver issue since it seems to occur with intel graphics in a few different projects. I can't think how this might manifest as a result of a bug in Pangolin, but maybe...

The two workarounds I might suggest trying are 1) See if you can upgrade or switch graphics drivers (is there an update for mesa, or alternative; gallium vs i965?) 2) Try using Pangolins EGL windowing instead of X11. @christian-rauch has a PR open to replace it you could try (https://github.com/stevenlovegrove/Pangolin/pull/389)

I have tried compiling Pangolin x11_egl from @christian-rauch, and it works!!! Tested all examples and worked well.
