How to revert back to stock RADEON drivers???
Ok read all 72 pages of this thread, i tried the purge ppa command bit it did not revert my graphics back. I am running Mint 15 with KDE 4.11
I was getting 60fps before in open gl apps now i get less than 30, what gives? how do i get back hardware open gl support?
i just want the stock mint 15 radeon drivers back, help!!!
thanks in advance!

@Oibaf
i recall my post above. i checked out the links on your ppa and accorindg to the one showing the current development status of mesa and driver supprots on freedesktop.org the i965 driver should already support the geometry shaders and actually opengl 3.2.
so why is it that it isn't? i mean the geometry shaders are not reported as available extension using glxinfo neither unigine demos recognise it. were your builds configured for a minimal setup, maybe?
