  Thanks.

  (after experiencing with building the different gallium branches and
checking the available targets)

  But I think my original question about what is the mesa that distros 
should
ship, with X Server 1.5, probably means it should be mesa_7_0_branch.


  And about the X Server and glucose?
  To explain myself, I am making some "contrib unstable test packages" 
so users
can test different branches and build combinations. glucose-2 log from a git
update from a few minutes ago:
