Bug Description
Binary package hint: xserver-
In mesa 7.9 that is currently in maverick Sandy Bridge DRI is non functional and leading to hangs any time a GL app is started. Given that these machines may potentially be released before 11.04 is, we should disable DRI in 10.10 so a 2D desktop experience is functional and revert the change for natty where it will be supported. This can be accomplished with a patch to xserver-

xserver- xorg-video- intel (2:2.12.0-1ubuntu5) maverick; urgency=low
[ Robert Hooker ] pciid_update. patch. Fixes detection of a new b43
* Disable DRI on Sandybridge chipsets. Support for them will not be released
until the Q42010 Intel releases, which will not be pulled into maverick.
Without this change, all 3D apps on these devices cause hangs.
(LP: #639667)
* Add 102_b43_
chipset revision that is being shipped. Without this the drivers
will not attempt to load even though this chipset is the same as
the previous b43 ones. Backport of upstream commit 55b5fe8880.
(LP: #640214)
[ Christopher James Halse Rogers ] patches/ 101_copy- fb.patch: Move scratch pixmap creation to the patches/ 106_backport_ vblank_ on_server_ regenerate_ fix.patch:
* debian/
drmmode_copy_fb function, and clean up after we've used it. Fixes the
SIGSEGV in FreeClientResources when logging out of KDE (LP: #628077)
* debian/
Backport fix for SwapBuffers hang after server regenerate. LP 628077
was hiding this by crashing the server. Fixes kwin desktop effects hanging
on second and subsequent logins.
* Cherry-pick e30f0338 to free the Screen pixmap on close. Fixes a memory
leak on server regeneration, and another crash on KDE log out hidden by
LP 628077.
