I just tried to upgrade my qemu virtual machine to glib 2.68.0, which lead
to lxdm/X not starting anymore. /var/log/lxdm.log reports:
MESA-LOADER: failed to open bochs-drm: /opt/X11/lib/dri/bochs-drm_dri.so:
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory (search paths
/opt/X11/lib/dri)
failed to load driver: bochs-drm
The file /opt/X11/lib/dri/bochs-drm_dri.so really does not exist, but with
older glib (2.66.8) this is no problem.
A downgrade to glib 2.66.8 does actually fix the problem, so glib 2.68.0
really seems to be the problem here. I will try to investigate further,
but for the moment, I would advise people to stay away from glib 2.68.0,
at least on qemu vm's running X.
