Nowadays, mesa drivers provided by NetBSD xsrc are working flawlessly for me. I tried to update wip/mesa to 8.*. However, with this version, r600 and r300 radon cards are no longer supported without gallium3d. And I was too lazy to try these gallium drivers (according my failing memory, r300g needed LLVM...). I created different packages in wip just according my tastes. No technical reasons behind this (but I was inspired by FreeBSD libGL and dri ports). I m eager to try Francois Tigeot s version ! -- Pierre Allegraud
