[Bug 419126] Re: [ATI R6xx and above] X fails to start up after mesa+git update - gdm loops after logging in

 

Why disable r600 dri when there is already a capable driver in the xorg-
edgers PPAs? To add a datapoint (HD4670), I've been using them for the
last 10 days with great success. Compiz works well and is smooth, XVideo
is there with the usual 16 textured video adapters, and even some dated
3d games I tried are surprisingly playable (Supertuxcart, wine+Age of
Mythology). All without a single freeze or X crash yet.

Of the glitches I described in #109 there is only bug #425303 left, The
busy window bug #425334 has been fixed already. I think it would be
really sad to have r600 dri disabled at this point. Are there any
blockers holding up the transition from xorg-edgers to the repos?
