--- Comment #57 from Gary Gatling <gsgatlin@xxxxxxxx> ---
I am unable to duplicate this bug on fedora 18 with the package I built myself
in my private yum repository. I am able to run:

optirun ./glxgears32-f18

Where glxgears32-f18 is a glxgears executable which has been scp'ed from a
fedora 18 kvm i686 virtual machine running inside of my centOS 6 box.

I have been using this very rpm on my CentOS 6 box for a couple of days and I
can play 32 and 64 bit games. (The main 32 bit game I play is "shatter" from
the humble indie bundles which seems to lock up my intel card for some reason
so I run it through optirun to get around that problem)


[gsgatlin@y470 ~]$ file ./glxgears32-f18
./glxgears32-f18: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV),
dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.32,
BuildID[sha1]=0xeb1d904956a38a266aa710c2103615efc9bc2daa, stripped


On fedora 18, this only works for me when using kernel 3.6.10-4.fc18.x86_64.
When using the latest kernel, I cannot load certain third party out of tree
kernel modules that are required for me to test bumblebee/VirtualGL. I
understand these third party kernel modules are bad/evil/wrong and I cannot
expect to get help from the fedora community in trying to troubleshoot that
particular issue... So I am on my own. :(


So I'm not sure what  to do next. I will work on figuring out how to push these
from "pending" to "testing," but I gather perhaps from item #3 on this page"


https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Package_update_HOWTO?rd=PackageMaintainers/UpdatingPackageHowTo#Submit_your_update_to_Bodhi

That I must wait for a Release Engineer to approve that... I don't see anything
obvious on how to change that in the web interface. I'll keep looking tonight
when I have more time.

If people want to see what I am trying to do with hybrid graphics on fedora /
red hat you can look at the somewhat epic thread at:

https://github.com/Bumblebee-Project/Bumblebee/issues/153

I have not had much luck with fedora 18 so far with the latest kernel and I am
not sure what to do. Maybe I should take them down in a week or so if I can't
get this to work like it worked with older fedoras... I'm going to keep working
on this all weekend so I haven't given up yet.

I have copied a vglrun script from VirtualGL-2.3.2-2.el6.x86_64 to a place on
the web.

http://install.linux.ncsu.edu/pub/yum/itecs/public/bumblebee/test/vglrun

Is this one different than the one you installed? How did you download this 
VirtualGL-2.3.2-2 rpm? What version of fedora are you using? (If fedora 17/16 I
can re-install my spare laptop with that distro so we are on the same page)

Thanks,
