[Geir Ove Myhr <gomyhr@xxxxxxxxx>]

I have uploaded an older version of mesa to my "old" PPA:
https://launchpad.net/~gomyhr/+archive/old/+packages . By testing this,
we can find out if this is caused by a bug in mesa which is introduced
after version 7.5.

Unfortunately, installing it is probably not as easy as just adding the
PPA to /etc/apt/sources and do `sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get
upgrade`, since the version in the PPA is older than then one in karmic
and I didn't do any PPA magic to make it want to upgrade anyway. The
easiest way I can think about is probably to download all the deb-files
for your architecture (*i386.deb) to an empty folder and do a `dpkg -i
-O *.deb` in that folder. That will install only the packages that
already have an installed version on your system.

If Karmic freezes with this version, I can try to go all the way back to
the Jaunty version.

PS: I don't have a Karmic installation (I only have Jaunty and Lucid) so
I haven't had a chance to test that the packages even work.
