There are good odds that this was already fixed upstream. And either way, even if it breaks Unity support, it's probably better than swrast, which doesn't support anything at all, don't you think? > > What do you think? > > If it is tested and working, it seems reasonable to enable it. > Probably it needs upstream and or Debian people to be testing it to > avoid regressions. Well, I could only test that it works in Fedora now. If one was to provide me packages, I could help test them on armhf Debian (unstable) as well. Either way, I think it's critical that we seriously take a look at this and enable llvmpipe if it doesn't bring significant drawbacks. -- Paul Kocialkowski, Replicant developer Replicant is a fully free Android distribution running on several devices, a free software mobile operating system putting the emphasis on freedom and privacy/security.
