Well, as for nouveau, you can always a) Build it as module and blacklist it when you want to use nvidia driver (most distros do that). b) Try using nouveau.disable=1 on kernel command line. As for nv, it does not have DRM driver, no 3D acceleration and it has terrible 2D acceleration. And for MesaLib, there won't be 8.1 release. 8.1 should've been released at least 15 days ago. But instead, they decided to complete OpenGL 3.1 and GLES 3.0 support and thus bump version so it will be MesaLib 9.0 at the end of this month. I am already running latest 9.0 checkout from today and it seems to work great on my Intel hardware with new 2.20.7 driver. I am waiting for 9.0 release candidate, so I could put it in the book in order to speed up process of upgrading other drivers and libdrm itself. Mesa patches are first posted on their mailing list and thus when they are commited, they work fine in most cases, so rc1 would be safe to use. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
