we have faced to the following error with comsol3.5a on OpenSuse 11.2 64bit server :

C [libGL.so.1+0x3e2cc] __glXSetArrayEnable+0xc
The crash appeared randomly, but quite often.
Solution:
use Mesa distributed with Comsol library instead of the system one.
Just specify
USEMESA=1
in comsol starting script

I have a similar problem for several months, it systematic on heavy models

its on a CENTOS V OS, Intel based WS.
I will try the -mesa option and test it out
Thanks for the tip

Now I get systematically this error (perhaps before too but it was then hidden in the flow of error info)
Warning: Found two components with the same name (Tree.cellRenderer)
COMSOL seems to behave still OK
anybody any ideas ?

The libs which comsol actually uses can be determined using lsof command (after comsol is started), or from the hs_err_pidXXXX.log after the system crashes.
Nvidia/ATI use different libraries, they could work better. However, using the libraries distributed with comsol seems to be safe, even if the performance can suffer.

I'm running on OS Centos V (Red Hat) Dell WS 64 with java 6.0_18-b07, latest Nvidea drivers.
(my libGL.so error arrived after a java update last summer, but as I'm a "visitor" on that WS I have not bothered do to much), my colleagues running other software have no issues.
In 3 days I'm getting "my" new local WS (only for me:) will see if the error remains, and ivestigate then more. Anyhow I have been able to work, had a crash after a few graphics dump, then it was just to restart COMSOL and one could continue.
with the -mesa I hardly have any problems anymore

it's true that the -mesa slows down drastically the save image process, but else it's OK, and its true I'm on NX "free" version, until my new WS arrives in my office
For those not wanting to have the ventilator noise there are interesting products (havnt tested it yet) like from www.teradici.com to put the heater in the basement and keep the screens on your desk

I open a 3.5 mph file using comsol 3.5a, the error pop as following.
Mybe It is the problem about different versions.
And when I run USEMESA=1 comsol on linux terminal, no use for this condition, why?

I am running comsol41 and 40a from a linux machine running CentOS 5.5 (64bits).
I had a similar error when I closed the window for some users and a crash at startup for others. Both of them leading to the following error log:

The solution was to use the "-3drend sw" argument on launching comsol as advised by the knowledge base:
www.comsol.com/support/knowledgebase/1068/
Hoping this willl fix your error,
Alexandre.

I was getting the "A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment" and the above worked for me!

comsol -3drend sw
If you want to make it work without this command, you'll have to install the driver. I advise you to go on Nvidia website. In my case, I have an ATI graphic card and I found the drivers from ATI website. But, it is very difficult to keep a good configuration for a long time: each time there is an Xorg update, it breaks the driver setup.
Good luck!
