Dear X list,
Maybe it is better style to split those topics in multiple mails or
even file bug reports. On the other hand I am still drafting and think
the topics are related and it's easier to pick something to answer.

Sorry, forgot that one before.

Here is what I just did, luckily it's was not as complicated as in [1]
$ git clone git://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/mesa/mesa
$ git checkout mesa-7.9.2
$ ./configure --enable-debug --enable-32-bit --with-dri-drivers=savage
$ make # went all fine
The modules were installed to /usr/lib/dri from where I copied them
to /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/dri/. (Just in case somebody wants to
reproduce).
The first try with Xephyr and awesome in a 1024x768 window was promising
$ glxinfo

Restarting the X server even doubled the pleasure.

From 10 to 500 - the time paid quite off. However glxinfo exits with
code 1. I am not sure how to interpret those values to gather more info.

erm, i never wrote a video driver before. Where to start? [2] [3]
I installed it, the warning disappeared, but there was no change in
performance (as expected) except the glx version changing from 1.4 to
1.2. (see attached diff). Has anybody an eye on this?
BTW what is the proper way to handle the manual issue #340993?
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=340993
(The mentioned segfault in glxdemo with no/wrong DISPLAY is present in
8.1.0 also. As there are no stripped symbols in a package I used the
source mentioned in #706022.
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
