Newer mesa will not install without a complete upgrade of X. It wants xserver-xorg-core 2:1.5+. This is a huge engineering upgrade for us and will take lots of QA hours to test all of our hardware and software. I hoped we could find a fix within the confines of Lenny. Lenny is shipped on HP thin clients as part of a custom build designed specifically for these devices.
