I have recently been getting serious rendering problems with Mesa. For
example, glxgears looks like this:

This particular issue is a glxgears bug which has been fixed upstream in
Mesa 6.5. It only happens with some window managers or when running
without a window manager.

My own applications show their graphics shifted left by about half the
window size.
This has been reported a couple of times (but unfortunately, I can't
find the other reports in the tangled woods of Mesa bug reports...) and
is fixed in libgl1-mesa-dri in experimental.
Hm, true. I tried the experimental version previously, but apparently
only tested glxgears, which was corrupted due to its own bug.
As this is the only issue clearly in libgl1-mesa-dri, let's focus on
this one in this report. Please don't mix several issues into one
report.
Sorry about that.
My graphics card is a Redeon ViVo from 2001, Xorg says "Chipset ATI
Radeon QD (AGP) found." A couple of reasons lead me to believe this is
not a hardware failure:
1. I have also seen this on an i915 machine
Which of the separate issues above?
The glxgears one.
2. glxgears exhibits the problem with software rendering as well
Which should have told you that's not a libgl1-mesa-dri issue.
Good point. Sorry for not thinking.
