Oops, please disregard. You're on ~arch too it seems. I'm using Mesa |
28 |
7.9 from the x11 overlay. |

I think the Gallium3D driver (r300g) should work just fine (and actually |
31 |
better than Mesa Classic, r300c) even on Mesa 7.8.2, at least for R300 |
32 |
GPUs (Radeon 9xxx). I've no idea why it's masked; r300g is what |
33 |
upstream recommends and r300c isn't really worked on and is practically |
34 |
deprecated. |
