Compilation problem with the latest version

[Aragorn]

Hi,
First of all, I must mention that I reinstalled ArchLinux on my new PC. I then installed the latest version of Asymptote but I get the following error :

[fabrice@arch ~]$ asy --version
Asymptote version 2.83 [(C) 2004 Andy Hammerlindl, John C. Bowman, Tom Prince]

Thanks for your help.

[John Bowman]

It looks like there is a bug in your graphics driver. Nothing has changed between Asymptote versions 2.82 and 2.83 that would cause such an error.

You forgot to post asymptote-1.asy so it is hard to provide any help. You should also post the output of

asy -vvv asymptote-1.asy

You can also try to work around some driver bugs using one or more of the options
-noGPUcompress, -noGPUindexing, -noGPUinterlock.

The fact that you get the Xlib error even before initializing OpenGL means
that there is a problem with your graphics libraries. I recommend downgrading to the previous OS version until this problem is fixed. Do glxgears and glmark2 work correctly?
It might be enough to downgrade the freeglut library. I'm using freeglut 3.2.2; I haven't tried 3.4.0 yet. The fact that your OpenGL doesn't support interlocks is already a sign of something wrong (at least for a modern graphics card):

Using the ArchLinux community, we installed the nvidia drivers for my new graphics card, and it now seems to work just fine.
Thank you.
