[Bug 446632] Re: blender-bin crashed with SIGSEGV in GPU_state_init()

[Geir Ove Myhr]

It seems that everyone with this bug has an ATI graphics card, so this
may be a problem with the ATI-specific part of mesa. You may test with
xorg-edgers (https://launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/+archive/ppa), since
that has the newest development version of mesa. Xorg-edgers on Jaunty
has the same mesa version, so if this is the problem and it is still
present with Karmic with xorg-edgers, it should also be a problem with
Jaunty with xorg-edgers.

Also, at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/karmic/+source/mesa there is a
list of mesa versions that was published during the karmic release
cycle. It seems there are still debs available for download. The source
package mesa builds many binary packages, so there are a quite a few
debs that has to be installed for each version.  Another option is to
build the source package (something like dpkg-source -x mesa-xyz.dsc; cd
mesa-xyz; debuild -b -us -uc; cd ..; dpkg -i -O *.deb). If downgrading
mesa helps, we know that mesa is the problem.
