<pre>Pekka,
You can probably tell I'm new to Gentoo as well, so I'm dealing with a good
amount of unfamiliarity all at once here, but I'm learning it as fast as I can.
In the context of the mesa package, USE="bindist" means "Disable
patent-encumbered ARB_texture_float, EXT_texture_shared_exponent, and
EXT_packed_float extensions."[1] I had automatically assumed it meant
proprietary code would be **enabled**, so that was my mistake. So bindist was
disabled, which enabled proprietary code, which caused the drivers to end up in
/usr/lib64/mesa instead of /usr/lib64/dri. Do I need any of those proprietary
functions/drivers (does Intel even provide any proprietary drivers?), or should
I set USE="-bindist"?
"eselect opengl" is and was set to xorg-x11 (the only option available).
As you suggested, I added VIDEO_CARDS="intel i965" and reinstalled mesa. After
symlinking /usr/lib64/dri/i965_dri.so to the real file in /usr/lib64/mesa, I
started Weston, and it worked properly without the slowness. So, confusing as
it sounds, i965_dri.so is the correct driver even when the kernel driver is
i915, as you said.
Finally, my keyboard works under Weston, but do you think it would benefit
other users if I report that bug anyway?
Thanks everyone for the help! Weston appears to be working for me now.
