So I upgraded to feisty to get glx working with the newer mesa libs. Sure the ol glxgears runs at the right speed for a change, but all my own openGL apps that work fine on all the others machines crash like crazy and use 100% cpu to do very simple things, like texture a spinning cube. Looks about the same as the results of using the newer debian glx packages on ubuntu.

Feisty broke my external video output also, so don't make the upgrade until we get a few people confirming that 3D accel now works in feisty, because right now it sure does not work properly.

I'm submitting a bug report for my broken external output.
