It has nothing to do with rviz, or even using OpenGL, just being linked against it. For example, this exhibits the same crash:<div><br></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, 'Bitstream Vera Sans', Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; "><pre class="wiki" style="background-image: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: rgb(247, 247, 247); border-top-width: 1px; border-right-width: 1px; border-bottom-width: 1px; border-left-width: 1px; border-top-style: solid; border-right-style: solid; border-bottom-style: solid; border-left-style: solid; border-top-color: rgb(215, 215, 215); border-right-color: rgb(215, 215, 215); border-bottom-color: rgb(215, 215, 215); border-left-color: rgb(215, 215, 215); margin-top: 1em; margin-right: 1.75em; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1.75em; padding-top: 0.25em; padding-right: 0.25em; padding-bottom: 0.25em; padding-left: 0.25em; overflow-x: auto; overflow-y: auto; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; ">

upgrading drivers seems to solve it. But I'm also still puzzled how<br>
killing another process causes rviz to crash simply because it uses<br>
opengl. I would have thought that the graphics and topic subscription<br>
parts of rviz would be fairly independent. What is it about the other<br>
process crashing, whose only connection (AFAIK) with rviz is through a<br>
ROS topic, that triggers the bug in the nvidia driver?<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
