Updated and Optimized Ubuntu Free Graphics Drivers

[commiethebeastie]

Are you can build oibaf/graphics-drivers with d3dadapter9 included? iXit repo has many regressions against master.

I include gallium nine both in the main PPA, which tracks mesa master, and this one following ixit master:

Choose your flavour

Since this is broken for everyone, not only for this PPA, it should be applied upstream so that everyone could benefit .

Everything should be ideally applied upstream, but if the upstream isn't smart enough why should you deliberately leave your users with a broken video decoding?

Decoding isn't broken because you can still use cpu decoding. It's just slower.

We just have two different visions on which kind of patches a maintainer should apply
For me every severe regression should be fixed, but it doesn't really matter since I don't even use Ubuntu.

Since the time you upgraded your compiler into newer, my dota has started hang at every game. Can play under 10 minutes and hole pc hangs. Force reboot.

Cant play it anymore. R9 290

pc hangs. Force reboot.

Does your kernel log (/var/log/kernel.log) or system log (/var/log/syslog) have anythnig about it after crash happens? (you may need alt-sysrq-s to sync disk cache to make sure logs are written to disk before forced reboot)

Can you give me some examples? I merge the Ixit changes against mesa master every day and I have no issues. Do you just mean it's not rebased often?

So I'm coming back to Linux in a bit, and I'm a bit confused as to what PPAs I should use. Basically, I want to use open-source drivers on my radeon hardware (r600 and radeonsi) and have a gallium-nine-compatible version of mesa and wine.

From what I gathered, I could use oibaf's PPA + sarnex's wine/nine PPA + sarnex's radeon DRI3 PPA together to accomplish this?

And what about Paulo's PPA? It seems it has mesa/nine, but would I use it along with the other two PPAs (wine/nine and radeon DRI3) and just not use oibaf's PPA? Does this PPA also have DRI3? Does gallium-nine with wine and mesa require DRI3 on radeon hardware?

It's been a little while since I last looked into this stuff, so I have some catching up to do

I don't know what means:

Someone could explain this means ..?
