blender segmentation fault

[arqlinux]

hi everybody!

Im new to this forum... kinda new to fedora but not new to linux... i use suse with KDE for 3 years now... but installed FC8 with gnome in my laptop and im loving it!

I have a Compaq presario... intel 945GM integrated video card, ICH7 hda intel sound, Pentium Dual Core T2080 @ 1.73GHz, 512 RAM...

The only problem so far is that i can run blender (i use it a lot...) i get this message

[isak@design2 ~]$ blender -w
Compiled with Python version 2.5.1.
Checking for installed Python... got it!
/usr/bin/blender: line 46: 6399 Segmentation fault /usr/bin/blender.bin $@

i have read about a bug in mesa 7.0.1... but not sure if thats my case... tho mesa released 7.0.2 it is not yet in the FC8 repos...

Does anybody know what can i do???

thanks!

PS: i have compiz fusion enable... crash happens both with compiz enabled and disabled...

Hello:
The good news is that you are not alone
However, the bad news is that it's happening.

See this thread and the bugzilla link.

From bugzilla:

sudo yum upgrade mesa-libGL --enablerepo=updates-testing

That fixes the issue. The new mesa hasn't been pushed yet. Please test this
out and then go to https://admin.fedoraproject.org/upda...DORA-2008-0094
to add karma to the package so it can be released. Please note this bug in your
comments when adding karma.
