Hey everybody, I wondered whether we should switch the default radeon driver stack over to gallium3d. I've been running gallium3d for a few months now and with every stack rebuild from git it only gets faster and neater. I haven't encountered any stability issues yet (or at least not any the standard drivers did not have). I think the speed and OpenGL compatibility are well worth it for our users. Since I'm toying around quite a lot with games and Ogre3D I know that shader support and overall speed now make the radeon + gallium3d drivers a viable replacement for the rather unlikeable catalyst drivers, even for gaming. For those who want to try it, build your gallium stack using my AUR package (http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=38090). Upstream says that almost all current development efforts flow into gallium3d and radeon KMS. Perhaps we should take the hint? What do you think? -- Sven-Hendrik
