Yesterday I added the https://launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/+archive/ppa packages to my system repositories and upgrade the provided packages to try out the Gallium3D drivers.
It did successfully started using Gallium3D using the r300g drivers.
Both VLC and gstreamer, thus Totem, default to using Xv for video output. In this mode video playback happens with heavy image corruption. This can be seen in the attached image. The problem disappears when I switch to just 'X11 video output (XCB)' in VLC or 'X Window System (No Xv)' for gstreamer.
The strange thing with gstream is that the test does work fine. I.e. if I start 'gstreamer-properties' and set the default output to 'X Window System (X11/XShm/Xv)' and run the test, all is well.
