Hi Rik-
Thanks a lot for the additional information -- I wasn't sure whether
this was a transient issue which would work itself out with newer
package versions (like you described), or something that needed
developer attention ASAP to keep this problem from making its way into
the final release.
The issue is things building in -proposed picking up a dependency on
libegl1 from libglvnd etc, but the version in -release is too old and
acceleration breaks when it migrates to -release. Ideally such things
should not migrate if they break things, but some oddities in this

Hi Rik-
I updated my system last night, and found bad/choppy graphical

Yes, I uploaded a new version of kinfocenter which does not pull in the
2 packages I mentioned, at least until we get newer versions that work
ok with the rest of our latest builds.
So any fresh install should not get them, and any existing install
should have them be removable or auto-removable w
Hi Rik-
Thank you very much for the advice. I fully updated my system again,
with no packages held back, rebooted, and was happy to try removing the
two packages you mentioned.
I was pleasantly surprised that I seem to have full performance with
graphical effects, so apparently some package updat

Those are new packages being pulled in by kinfocentre building against
new things in -proposed pocket.
Can you confirm
Update: it wasn't libdrm-intel1. I held back updates to that
package, fully updated my system, rebooted, and get terrible
graphical performance under OpenGL 2.0 and 3.1. Switching the
rendering backend to XRender makes everything smooth again, though.
