I have reverted back to 18.0.0. Do you want me to try again to get the output?

Hi Allan,
Thanks for the output. I think I see the problem. The
libGL.so.1 is linked to the old Mesa 18.0.0
libGL.so.1.2.0.bak. Please delete the symbolic link
libGL.so.1 and create a new symbolic link
libGL.so.1 which references to the new Mesa
libGL.so.1.2.0.
Code: Select all
sudo ln -s libGL.so.1.2.0 libGL.so.1
Thanks,
Christian

Tried again using the commands above to create the soft link ( I assume I had to be in the /usr/lib/powerpc-linux-gnu/mesa/ drawer to execute those commands, forgive me but I bumble around Linux), still no cigar.
sorry

2. Remove and install symbolic link
3. Cold reboot

Hi Allan,
Thanks for the output. Your Mesa installation is correct now. It seems that Casey uses a new Debian version for building Mesa.
@Casey
Could you please compile Mesa on ubuntu MATE 16.04?
Thanks,
Christian

I note that there is a proposed 18.0.5 version for Ubuntu 16.04 .
I upgraded yesterday by enabling the developer option for proposed updates .
I use the following links to track Mesa updates .
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mesa
