[Bf-committers] final patch for DRI crash

[Ton Roosendaal]

Hi Jacek,

Thats fabulous! And logical too, hopefully this will solve quite some =20=

troubles we had with opengl for the free unices.

This brings me to a related topic: for windows users we have a pretty =20=

useful page on h/w OpenGL tweaking at our site. I would love to see an =20=

equivalent with tips for the Linux/FreeBSD versions of Blender.

Can the users of these platforms mail here tips & tricks? Mentioning:

- 3d card type
- OS type, version
- drivers / opengl version

And the procedures you followed to get it working correctly with =20
Blender.

I'll collect the info, and put that at the site. Thanks!

-Ton-
