Thank you! This really helped me! Now I see no problems in OpenGL. Not
only the bug disappeared, but also I suspect that speed has increased. I
didn't benchmarks but if I'm not mistaken the clearing speed was
increased twice and flying through a tunnel is faster and smoother than
before. If this DRI fixes are too serious and/or experimental why not to
mention them in mga man page so that people know that they can use them
if they have troubles?
