Package: libgl1-mesa-dri Version: 7.11-6 Severity: wishlist I think it's time to install the Nouveau 3D drivers by default, i.e. move them to the libgl1-mesa-dri package. While not fully supported for all cards (e.g. there is currently no upstream maintainer for the classic Mesa driver and for nvfx), these drivers should give most users a much better experience than the swrast driver.
With the advent of technologies as GNOME Shell and WebGL in web browsers, out-of-the-box OpenGL support is also becoming more and more important. Besides, other current distributions (e.g. Ubuntu 11.10, openSUSE 12.1 and Slackware 13.37) have also followed the Fedora 15 lead to install the Nouveau 3D drivers by default. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (101, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.1.0-rc9-nouveau (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-x-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
