Does Compiz work with rawhide mesa drivers?

[dd_wizard]

I'm using the F13 mesa drivers in F14 to work around bug 613118. If compiz works correctly in rawhide with Intel graphics, I'd like to test the rawhide mesa drivers.

Thanks,

Everything seems to be working. I haven't played with this much, but it's something that I test with large batches of updates and it has been pretty solid for a number of kernels now:

[R3353@ric-reeselinux-03 ~]$ glxinfo | grep Mesa
client glx vendor string: Mesa Project and SGI
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI Intel(R) G33 GEM 20100330 DEVELOPMENT
OpenGL version string: 1.4 Mesa 7.9-devel

Thanks for the info, R3353. I tried the rawhide drivers, but they have the same artifact problem as the F14 drivers. I wonder if broken compiz would be considered a beta blocker. That might get something done.

Sorry to hear they did not work for you. I looked for the artefacts described in the bug report, but did not see anything that limited usage. The lines separating portions of windows blink a bit when a window wobbles, but the desktops on a cube, exposé, fire painting, et cetera seem to be working.
