I am not aware of official Mesa documentation which explains when |
| 11 |
Gallium3D should be used rather than classic. Mostly, such information |
| 12 |
spreads as word of mouth and sometimes as news articles on websites like |
| 13 |
phoronix.com. |

There will be a default set for new eselect-mesa installations, so if |
| 16 |
you upgrade to mesa-7.9 today you will get the r300 gallium driver and |
| 17 |
the r600 classic driver. When we set a new default, then a news item to |
| 18 |
inform users about the change is certainly a good idea. |
