DRI Developments

A newer version of my DRI packages for Debian is in the works. A great deal of progress has been made with the r200 (Radeon 8500 and better) branch of DRI. For months Unreal Tournament 2003 and 2004 have been unplayable due to frequent lockups. For months Descent 3, HeavyGear 2, and Shogo have been unplayable due to problems with projected textures. Though I haven't tested recent versions of the DRI CVS yet, talk on DRI-Devel indicates that these problems should be mostly, if not completely, fixed.

I've also filed an ITA (Intent To Adopt) on the xmms-infinity package in Debian. I'm already maintaining four other XMMS visualization plugin packages. Infinity is another good visualization that needs a bit of work. The current version is completely broken. Hopefully I can get a new one in before Debian Sarge is released.
