[Pkg-blender-maintainers] Bug#404087: blender: Restricting a grab or scale to one axis causes the Xserver to crash

Package: blender
Version: 2.42a-5
Severity: important


In top view (Numpad 7), if I grab or scale an object and then press 'y' to
restrict the change to one axis, the Xserver crashes. Same behaviour with
front view (Numpad 1) and 'z'.

Perhaps, this is really a bug in the OpenGL-libraries: Xorg.0.log's
backtrace has several functions from libglx.so and libGLcore.so.
Also, I experience these crashes only when using an ATI Rage graphics
controller with which I have "direct rendering disabled".
If I plug in a Radeon graphics controller, I get "direct rendering enabled",
and blender works fine.

I include my xorg.conf, Xorg.0.log, and lspci.
