Public bug reported:

libgl1-mesa-dri-experimental currently only contains the nouveau DRI
driver for mesa which is completely unsupported by upstream and it's use
is not recommended. Currently it's in main and I don't believe that
makes sense for this package.

Upstream wiki:
http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/

"Any 3D functionality that might exist is still unsupported. Do not ask
for instructions to try it. But you can read GalliumHowto in case you
are brave enough."

Channel topic in #nouveau on the freenode IRC server.
"[logged] FAQ: http://nouveau.freedesktop.org | No 3D user support here"

Additionally, reporting 3D problems is actively discouraged by the
developers because it is known to have problems.
