I'm using a very recent pull of the TCL branch and am happy to report page
flipping working here (with really impressive increases in speed), and no
lock-ups.
However, some GL apps that I've tried end up creating a few pixels of
distortion across the top of the screen (the full width, and
the partition that all my games were one died and I just
reinstalled the above three.

latest code on the trunk usable under FreeBSD? Do you still need to pull

There are still some rendering anamolies with tuxracer (which I

Quite question :-)
Can anyone let me know if stencil buffers are supported in the Radeon

So I've done some more playing around with the TCL branch (updated
about an hour ago).
I haven't spent much time on it, but since it seems to relate to
the problems I was experiencing earlier I thought I'd pass this tidbit

What would be helpful would be to look at Mesa/samples, and identify what in

Just a quick follow-up to a question I'm sure that's coming :-)
Yes, the Radeon mobility works fine under stock 4.2.0, without any
problems.

Well, the new TCL enabled driver doesn't seem to like my Radeon 7500,
either. Luckily, though, at least it doesn't lock up X on this card.
Instead, I'll usually just get a black window where the GL app should be,
and then nothing. I can still move the mouse, move the window, kill the
app,

So I thought that I'd finally try the DRI under FreeBSD (I recently
upgraded an old installation to 4.4rc4). Well, it seems that I've hit a
rough spot. Though it isn't a huge deal, it'd be nice to get it working.
