I'm facing huge difficulties after this upgrade. All games I'm running
with wine stopped working. I did not test others. They start, but I
either get a black or purple window, no image. Can somebody point me the
right way to debug and solve this?
I have an AMD Radeon HD 7850 installed.
Making a basic test, it seems to perform better with software
rendering... ?!?
$ glxgears -info
GL_RENDERER = AMD PITCAIRN (DRM 2.50.0 / 4.15.0-11-generic, LLVM 5.0.1)
GL_VERSION = 3.0 Mesa 18.0.0-rc4
GL_VENDOR = X.Org
(...)
VisualID 1064, 0x428
355 frames in 5.0 seconds = 70.940 FPS
300 frames in 5.0 seconds = 59.997 FPS
$ LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=1 glxgears -info
GL_RENDERER = llvmpipe (LLVM 5.0, 128 bits)
