[Bug 1061073] Re: Desktop effects are slow and desktop corruption using mesa 9

[Thiago Martins]

@Rob: Ok, so I'm back from rebooting after bumblebee install and I
report no corruption nor frame rate reduction. optirun glxspheres is
working flawlessly on my NVidia 650M at 220 fps (jpg transport)...

However...

I did install it through aptitude, which pointed that the recommended
virtualgl-libs-ia32 (i386) was incompatible with the available versions
of libgl1-mesa-glx:i386 (only version 9.0-0ubuntu1 is available here).
As such, aptitude (rightfully) ignored this recommendation. Muon, on the
other hand, *will* try to install virtualgl-libs-ia32, which I suppose
will break the downgrade to mesa 8.0.4.

Now, what do I make of this? Well, for start, I fear my bumblebee
install won't work with my wine games. I haven't tried it yet, but the
lack of a 32 bits virtualgl lib is not looking promising. I will report
on that soon.

Then, again, aptitude won't install the 32bits version of virtualgl for
the lack of a 32bits version of libgl1-mesa-glx. Well, there's one build
of such version on the very same repository pointed by the OP, under
i386 builds! My next steps are:

- Find out if the lack of virtualgl-libs-ia32 is really problematic (i.e. wine gaming).
- Find out if I can install virtualgl-libs-32 using the i386 builds of mesa 8.0.4 from the repository of the OP.
