Same Problem with nvidia-current (=304)

Linux ART-LT16 4.4.0-45-lowlatency #66-Ubuntu SMP PREEMPT Wed Oct 19 14:57:51 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

trying to start genymotion (Android Emulator via VBox)

Nov. 7 13:30:39 [Genymotion Player] [Debug] Player running. Try to show window...
Nov. 7 13:30:39 [Genymotion Player] [Fatal] Failed to create OpenGL context for format QSurfaceFormat(version 2.0, options QFlags(), depthBufferSize 24, redBufferSize -1, greenBufferSize -1, blueBufferSize -1, alphaBufferSize -1, stencilBufferSize 8, samples -1, swapBehavior 2, swapInterval 1, profile 0)

Ubuntu 16.10, all packages updated.
tried genymotion last version 2.6 and 2.8.

The problem is here since I updated the latest kernel and nvidia packages tody in the morning.

Tried to fall back to noveau: problem is away.
Reinstalled nvidia-current: problem is back.

I forced to downgrade the nvidia driver
from 304.132-0ubuntu0.16.04.2 (xenial updates)
to 304.131-0ubuntu3 (xenial)

Now my genymotion works again, the bug's away.

And I'm sorry: I'm on Ubuntu Studio 16.04, not 16.10

Maybe its a workaround for somebody.

So it appears this problem is not specific to webbrowser-app or even oxide, but rather Qt failing to create an OpenGL context with this specific driver. Re-targetting the bug.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

This bug also occurs with the latest Nvidia Driver 375.26 and Qt 5.8 RC1. However not with the simple Qt OpenGL Demo Apps and this simple qml test app, so using 375.26 might solve the issue for some people including webbrowser-app.

Failed to create OpenGL context for format QSurfaceFormat(version 2.0, options QFlags<QSurfaceFormat::FormatOption>(), depthBufferSize 24, redBufferSize -1, greenBufferSize -1, blueBufferSize -1, alphaBufferSize 8, stencilBufferSize 8, samples -1, swapBehavior QSurfaceFormat::SwapBehavior(DoubleBuffer), swapInterval 1, profile QSurfaceFormat::OpenGLContextProfile(NoProfile))

In my case it does not crash with the Intel driver (however this driver has performance "issues").

I have the same problem.
I am using Qt 5.8.0 and QtCreator 4.2.1 on Nvidia 375.39-0ubuntu0.16.04.1
Qt Creator failed with following message.
[warning] 3542 4.679 QXcbIntegration: Cannot create platform OpenGL context, neither GLX nor EGL are enabled

I am having the same problem with webbrowser-app. My machine :
Lenovo ThinkPad X230
Memory : 7,5GiB
Processor : Intel® Core™ i5-3320M CPU @ 2.60GHz × 4
Graphics : Intel® Ivybridge Mobile
OS Type : Ubuntu 16.04LTS 64bit
Disk : 228,0GB SSD

I used to use "webbrowser" to work under WordPress because some functionalities are no more operational with Chrome; For couple of months now I can't use "webbrowser". I tried to uninstall it, reinstall it, no way!

PS : I am not an Ubuntu specialist but a basic user who doesn't want to deal anymore with MicroSoft Windows ...

here is my log in terminal when I input webbrowser-app, if this may help :
