Hey Chia-I Wu :-),

nice to see you on Wayland!

Unfortunately, I did *NOT* hope someone will say use radeon-gallium
r300g/r600g, because r300g is minimum r300-r500.
As I am here on RV250 (r200) there is currently no chance for use
radeon-gallium.

I have all Wayland stuff with $PREFIX to /opt/wayland.
How can I assure that drivers and other stuff is loaded from there?
I know of the LIBGL_DRIVERS_PATH=/opt/wayland/lib/dri trick, is that enough?
Currently, I wanted to avoid a system-installation with PREFIX=/usr.

But, I can try "gallium-based egl driver".
I do not see a --enable-egl-gallium like --enable-gallium-radeon
(r300g) or --enable-gallium-r600 (r600g) in mesa's configure.ac.

Q: How to build egl_gallium? Via $STATE_TRACKERS

BTW, can you tell me which GIT versions you have from mesa
libxkbcommon cairo-gl wayland working?

Thanks in advance.
