radeonsi with glamor-egl has been in Ubuntu since September. Shouldn't it be possible to get that into experimental?Am Sonntag, 15.

The libglamor package even exists as a Debian repository as an unreleased version and recompiling the ddx with this package and --enable-glamor even works, so why force me to do all of this myself and have apt remove all of my xorg installation every time X gets some update, just because the maintainer will only look after the ubuntu branch of that package?If you care about this and want to look after this driver (and the glamor package) in Debian, I'm sure that'll be appreciated. Cheers, JulienSo the first step would be creating an ITP bug, finding out what makes the unpublished code unfit for upload, fixing that and looking for a sponsor? Jan
