Summary: make gde script work with newer nvidia drivers

Created: 2013–01–17 14:21

Status: Released

Category: Request

From: frankie

Version: 2.2

Released_In: 2.3

Description:

The glxinfo command is not as readily available on linux systems these days. Some distributions have tucked it away under the mesa-demos or mesa-utils.

This is a request to make the gde script work on more systems even if this is not installed.

frankie January 17, 2013, at 02:35 PM: This has been done. First off, if glxinfo fails, the script no longer exits - it continues on to try and provide information. Secondly, a 32 bit version of the glxinfo program has been provided for Linux as "bin_Linux_FC3/glxinfo_edge". The gde script will now use this binary if the glxinfo command is not found on a linux machine.
