Not opposed to giving this a try. However, the git does not work.
You have to use libdrm, xserver-xorg-video-nouveau and a kernel from experimental for that. Mesa versions >= 7.8 don't compile or work with the libdrm from squeeze/sid. If you're using the Mesa master branch, you have to revert commit c25fcf5aa5beccd7731706b8f85682170a2eca56 or use the latest libdrm from git, because that is part of Yet Another ABI+API break in Nouveau. :-/ Sven -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
