Thanks for your help. Now I have solved prior problems and successfully 
installed Mesa3D 7.11. But I find that it uses software rendering. How 
can I get it use hardware rendering?

I use Ubuntu 11.04. My card is Powerland HD 6750. I think it is 
currently supported.

Output from glxinfo:
....
direct rendering: Yes
server glx vender string: SGI
server glx version string:1.4
....
OpenGL vendor string: Mesa Project
OpenGL renderer string: Software Rasterizer
OpenGL version string: 2.1 Mesa 7.11
....

No output from "dmesg | grep drm" . From the output of "ldd 
/usr/bin/glxinfo" I can see that my ligGL.so.1 is linked to linux-vdso.so.1

Thanks,
Miao
