Description Greg Fitzgerald 2018-07-11 03:35:35 UTC
I recently updated my packages, after updating from g20180126_1 to g20180126_3 alacritty no longer starts. I get the following error.

Error creating GL context; Couldn't find any pixel format that matches the criterias.

I'm on FreeBSD-11.2-RELEASE with the amdgpu drivers from drm-kmod-next.

I cannot test it, cause alacritty starts without problems on my system, but maybe this can solve this:

I'm not sure if that patch works yet or not, I'll try to test it tomorrow. That being said I just installed git using cargo and it works fine from git.

I thought this issue was resolved already.

There's a PR for an updated version, perhaps that solves this issue as well?

Sorry, I forgot to come back and update this issue. That patch did fix the issue for me.

Closing as fixed per comment #3 and comment #4.
