[Bug 1042211] Re: [quantal] [regression] [i915] Corrupted display, desktop and menus don't repaint correctly using Mesa 9.0 (8.0.4 works)

 

I hate to be "that guy" but somebody has to say what I'm sure others are
thinking.

It's a horrible decision to ship a broken Mesa in a desktop-oriented
distro, when both major desktop environments (Unity and KDE) use or rely
on it, and it affects nearly-ubiquitous commodity video hardware.

It was known for two months that this was broken, and still it went into
the release. Someone should have stopped it.

Just once I would like to successfully upgrade ubuntu without suffering
from nasty regressions or serious breakage. It hasn't happened yet
(since Breezy, for me).
