digiKam advanced slideshow not working correctly

[KernelKarter]

I've used digiKam for a looooooong time and I've never had a single problem with the advanced slideshow until now. If I check Use OpenGL slideshow transitions, the slideshow starts but doesn't display anything other than a completely blank screen. If I un-check it, the slideshow works as expected. I've seen a lot of posts in here regarding OpenGL problems but nothing relating to digiKam. Does anyone have a solution please.

[KernelKarter]

OK then, can anyone actually reproduce this problem, thanks.

Haven't looked at that in a while...

In my setup, "Advanced Slideshow..." is greyed out.

[YouCanToo]

Mine has the same issues as KernelKarter has.

[pags]

I was just thinking...at the moment, I'm running two external monitors.  Later, when it's just the laptop LCD, I'll try again see what happens.  I'm also running KDE effects...not sure what impact that might have...

[Cris70]

Same problem here. Moreover, if I deselect OpenGL Digikam crashes as soon as I start the slideshow (segmentation fault).

In my case, digiKam doesn't even display a blank screen. Screen stays in Advanced Slideshow settings but if I move my cursor on the upper left or right edge of the screen, I can see the slideshow controls...

I get some errors when launching digiKam from terminal:

Yet, others like FooBillard and I'm not sure if Emilia's Pinball uses OpenGL, but they work.

[KernelKarter]

It's looking like it could be an nVidia related problem

As I said, haven't had this tested on singled screen, yet...

[agmg]

I have an ATI graphics card and I have the same problem... So, it's not only nVidia

[Serj]

I do not use digiKam, but I have a similar problem.
If I run systemsettings in the console, and then open the Desktop Effects and navigate through the tabs, at the end of the console output I get is:

Code: [Select]

libEGL warning: DRI2: failed to find _glapi_get_proc_address
libEGL warning: GLX: failed to load GLX
libEGL warning: unable to load st_GL.so
I am inclined to believe this is the cause of some problems in my system.

If this is not difficult, you can also check it out. I do not think that this problem exists only in my system.
It must somehow decide...

[Linuzoid]

I traced the libEGL and st_GL.so to libmesaegl1, looks like it's a mesa problem.
