Nop I compiled 1.2.3 sorry because it's not in experimental for amd64 yet. 
I'll try to use the package from experimental as soon as he is compiled for 
amd64, it shouldn't take more than a week I think.

The strange thing is when downgrading to 1.2.1-3 (the version I can get from 
experimental) I still have direct rendering ok according to glxinfo althought 
the debian changelog didn't mention backporting the patch for DRI in their 
1.2.1-3 versions. Software which ask DRI accept launching indeed but they are 
as slow as if it was software rendering. What could make the X server claim 
there is DRI althought it is software rendering ?
