Hi Guys,

I execute the command -> glxinfo | grep direct
and i get this error
Code:

glxinfo: error while loading shared libraries: libnvidia-tls.so.1: cannot handle TLS data


I've read the nvidia guide and followed the correct procedures. I've also ran revdep-rebuild and googled and read the forums.

I read one forum which says to re-emerge glibc.https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-367415-highlight-glxinfo+error+loading+shared+libraries+libnvidiatls+1+handle+tls+data.html

The user on that forum has tried that and still has problems.

If anyone can tell me what to read or what to do that would be great.

Thanks.

Do a search on nptl and nptlonly. One of the 2 causes glibc to build the tls libary. Look in your USE flags. I did a forum search and its the nptlonly flag thats causeing the prob. Youll have to remove it and 'emerge glibc" again. For that matter you need to do a " emerge glibc && emerge world -e ".
Read this Maya7 / mental ray [SOLVED]
half way down is the ebuld listing of maya and at the end of it in the einfo is a message about TLS .

Hi,

thanks for your reply.

I execute this command.

Code:
USE="-nptlonly" emerge glibc

or
Code:
emerge -pv glibc


and recieve the following

Code:
These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild   R   ] sys-libs/glibc-2.3.5-r1  -build -erandom -glibc-compat20 -glibc-omitfp -hardened -linuxthreads-tls (-multilib) +nls -nptl -nptlonly -pic -profile (-selinux) -userlocales 0 kB



I don't have nptl or nptlonly in my USE Flags. So that figures, that nptl is not supported along with glibc. Also, glibc is already emerged.

hmm.
On another note, since glxinfo | grep direct is not functioning, its breaking probably several other apps, so far when executing gmplayer it is producing the same error as glxinfo.

If you remerge nvidia-kernel and nvidia-glx, does it solve the problem? It did for me.

Unfortunately that did not work (emerge nvidia-kernel && emerge nvidia-glx).

I could reemerge glibc but then again, the user hielvc advise to emerge glibc without nptl USE flag, but I already have glibc emerged without nptl.

Any other suggestions on this issue?

Does playing with opengl-update change anything (opengl-update xorg-x11 and opengl-update nvidia)?

No it doesn't, I've followed the gentoo nvidia guide as mentioned on my first post.
I guess I would need to emerge glibc, but any other options or advice would be good :)
