Solved Need help making OpenGL/GLX to work in a dual graphics setup

DanDare · Jul 21, 2021

Hi. I'm trying to make my install run OpenGL/GLX.
It's giving me errors like "Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual or fbconfig"
and/or
"ERROR: [Loader Message] Code 0 : loader_scanned_icd_add: Attempt to retrieve either 'vkGetInstanceProcAddr' or 'vk_icdGetInstanceProcAddr' from ICD libGLX_nvidia.so.0 failed.
error: XDG_RUNTIME_DIR not set in the environment.
ERROR at /wrkdirs/usr/ports/graphics/vulkan-tools/work/Vulkan-Tools-1.2.184/vulkaninfo/vulkaninfo.h:248:vkEnumeratePhysicalDevices failed with ERROR_INITIALIZATION_FAILED"
and/or
"Error: couldn't get an RGB, Double-buffered visual"

While trying stuff from mesa-demos or games/homura

Running FreeBSD-13.0-RELEASE
My computer is https://bsd-hardware.info/?probe=daa7e68a1f
Dual graphics UHD Graphics 620 and GM108M [GeForce MX110]

Before attempting I was running the i915 driver by kld_list="/boot/modules/i915kms.ko" what always generated the following error in boot:

Code:

Then installed "nvidia-hybrid-graphics-0.5 NVIDIA secondary GPU configuration - Optimus Technology support" this package also installed nvidia-secondary-driver-460 and other nvivia related packages.

The package message is

Code:

Message from nvidia-hybrid-graphics-0.5:

--
Running Xorg-nvidia-headless at startup is recommended especially on mobile
systems since leaving Nvidia GPU powered on with no Xorg may consume
significantly more power.

# sysrc nvidia_xorg_enable=YES
# service nvidia_xorg start

The Xorg instance uses separate configuration files from the defaults for Xorg:

    /usr/local/etc/X11/xorg-nvidia-headless.conf.d/

    /usr/local/etc/X11/xorg-nvidia-headless-template.conf
        Only used if xorg-nvidia-headless.conf does not exist.
    This file is passed through nvidia-xconfig, which does not preserve
    all options.

    /usr/local/etc/X11/xorg-nvidia-headless.conf
        Created by manually invoking /usr/local/bin/nvidia-headless-xconfig.
        Once created, this configuration is not passed through nvidia-xconfig.

Configuration is not normally needed for typical OpenGL acceleration usage.

A properly configured xorg-nvidia-headless.conf will allow Xorg-nvidia-headless
to be started by non-superuser if Xorg has been installed setuid.

Then I added 'kld_list="nvidia-modeset"' and 'nvidia_xorg_enable=YES' to rc.conf rebooted and executed /usr/local/bin/nvidia-headless-xconfig what generated the config file. Rebooted again. Now I can see in dmesg:

After starting XFCE4 in the usual way I can see a clear improvment in graphic speed, for example while running Ubuntu in Virtualbox. But can't make OpenGL to run.
The logs for Xorg contains an error:

Code:

"[   691.898] (EE) AIGLX error: dlopen of /usr/local/lib/dri/iris_dri.so failed (Shared object "libglapi.so.0" not found, required by "iris_dri.so")

Tried to find where/how to have this libglapi.so.0 installed but cannot find how to fix this.
If I run nvidia-smi:

If I open NVIDIA X Server Settings it looks good. Screenshots attached.

I tried booting with and without kld_list="/boot/modules/i915kms.ko" besides nvidia but still same thing.

Any clues about how to glue GLX to be able to make this work?

Thanks!

Hello,

the missing library gets provided by graphics/mesa-libs if you have that package already installed try pkg install -f mesa-libs.

Thanks! It did it!
I had it installed already but the reinstall worked. Weird.
