This is about poor forethought. I complained months ago about how the X
team was moving to lock out utah-glx. Utah has more users than DRI - why
do this? I woke up from an overnight upgrade of gtk to find my X install
made unusable.
The point is I need utah to delevop and run Open GL apps, until DRI
matures - by making utah uninstallable and not accounting for an installed
utah - branden has effectively banned it.
You might want utah to play tribes2 or run a modeler one day too.
cheers,
Terry
