Updated and Optimized Ubuntu Free Graphics Drivers

[Vincenzov]

Hello, I'm interested in the work of Christian König, 3gdvl/vdpau.
Today I noticed the update to the decoder.

I pushed updated libdrm, -ati and mesa packages supporting r600 tiling for oneiric and natty. Precise users should wait until I sync current precise packages with my PPA changes.

Updated libdrm and mesa packages for precise (Ubuntu 12.04) are building now.

Hi oibaf,

is is possible to test this bug?

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=45880

"in mesa, src/gallium/winsys/radeon/drm/radeon_drm_winsys.c
change all assignments of r600_virtual_address to FALSE
ws->info.r600_virtual_address = FALSE;"

thanks for the packages for precise.

whats the reason that the new xserver-xorg-video packages are hold back?

Time and motivation to work on something I don't use (I am still on natty).

No problem, I pushed them now, so precise is completely supported now.

Version 8.1~git1202111943.c565ff~gd with that change is building now. Let me know what you get so that I can eventually revert it.
