At first i did not know that the problem was caused by the ppa. However i think that the MESA drivers should always be upgraded to the latest stable version. Ubuntu should handle the MESA packages like firefox. Ubuntu is the only officialy supported linuxdistribution supported by Steam for gaming and runs on outdated gpudrivers.
