"It can't > work lets go back to DRI2" isn't really an option in the long run It would be great if somebody would fix this. I just want to give a heads-up that we are not going to delay architectural improvements in WebKit for just DRI3 plus modesetting driver, and that this is going to render lots of apps totally unusable (gnome-initial-setup, gnome- online-accounts, Evolution, etc.) possibly in the F25/F26 timeframe if this isn't resolved.
