Feral Interactive's call for a stable Mesa PPA has already made progress, as there's now a stable PPA available for Mesa.
Paulo Dias "Padoka" has setup another PPA here: https://launchpad.net/~paulo-miguel-dias/+archive/ubuntu/pkppa
Note: This is a community-run PPA, so it's possible it may someday go out of date and/or have issues at times.
This is likely a stop-gap measure until something more official is done.
It currently hosts Mesa 13.0.2 and LLVM 3.9 along with RADV and ANV the AMD and Intel open source Vulkan drivers.
If you're on Ubuntu, or one of its derivatives you can install this PPA by doing this command:
Followed by:
That's all you should need to do now on Ubuntu to get a stable and up to date version of Mesa.

Quoting: lelouchWho cares!?
Dude, seriously? Of course people care, that's the only logical reason to why Feral Interactive even called for a PPA be set up.

Quoting: ShmerlQuoting: m0nt3Ubuntu needs a rolling release. Rolling release has been nice for me using opensource drivers. I dont have to worry about adding unofficial repositories and still get the latest stable drivers. The issue with rolling release is steam packaging old lib files that are incompatible with the opensource drivers.
If you want a rolling release, you can already use Debian testing.
It is not a true rolling release, as it has freezes states for when it moves into stable and it is not fitted with the larger repositories of Ubuntu, and due to its stance of remaining completely free there is no easy proprietary driver installation for instance or out of box support for things like audio and video decoding. in that case the user has to add the non-free repo.
And with Ubuntu's point releases system upgrades can cause breakage as can adding in unofficial repositories, which is why the rolling release would be nice.

It is more rolling than anything Ubuntu. To make it more rolling they need to reduce the freeze period, which they so far succeeded in the last release. Hopefully they'll keep it up, and won't let it become too long again. Mixing anything from Ubuntu into Debian is always a bad idea. Don't do that - they aren't necessarily compatible.
Adding a non-free part of the repo is something you can do at any point if it wasn't added. There are Debian installers with it included by default. The only thing missing with multimedia in Debian repos is libdvdcss. You need Videolan repo for it (and for a good reason - dealing with corrupted DRM protection laws is risky). Other than that, you can play anything you want with mpv and vlc out of the box.

Quoting: MGOidQuoting: paasistiIt seems I got burned (Cinnamon complains that it's running without video hardware acceleration with this ppa) so I tried this. After the first phase it lists out as WILL BE REMOVED nearly every component there is and prompts for "Yes, I know what I'm doing". I did this once, and it wrecked my system. If I type anything else, it takes me to another list with still plenty of stuff being removed (including libs from vlc, skype, steam..). What should I do here? I don't want to reinstall my system like I had to do last time..
Strange, I didn't remember ppa-purge do this with me. What distro are you using and what PPA are you trying to remove?
Linux Mint 18 with Cinnamon.
I'm using
sudo ppa-purge ppa:paulo-miguel-dias/pkppaI tried aborting the first deletion and accepting the second, but that didn't get me too far it seems. Now ppa-purge says that the PPA is removed, but my Mesa version is still 13.0.2 - padoka PPA and the original issue is not fixed (and, skype and steam won't start so need to reinstall those, at the least..)

The following actions will resolve these dependencies:
Remove the following packages:
1) xserver-xorg-video-all
2) xserver-xorg-video-vmware
Keep the following packages at their current version:
3) libegl1-mesa [1:13.0.2-2~x~padoka0 (now)]
4) libgbm1 [1:13.0.2-2~x~padoka0 (now)]
5) libgl1-mesa-dri [1:13.0.2-2~x~padoka0 (now)]
6) libgl1-mesa-glx [1:13.0.2-2~x~padoka0 (now)]
7) libglapi-mesa [1:13.0.2-2~x~padoka0 (now)]
8) libllvm3.9 [1:3.9-1~gd~x (now)]
9) libwayland-egl1-mesa [1:13.0.2-2~x~padoka0 (now)]

Abandoning all efforts to resolve these dependencies.
Abort.
Warning: Something went wrong, packages may not have been revertedEDIT again:
Well, I solved this by upgrading to the bleeding edge PPA. Everything seems okay now (no screen tearing as there was before when I tried the PPA) so I guess everything is awesome again. Although it would would be nice to know how to downgrade if there's ever need..

Guys don't feed trolls who are tagged as new accounts. Don't give them the attention they seek. ;)

Quoting: paasistiIt seems I got burned (Cinnamon complains that it's running without video hardware acceleration with this ppa) so I tried this. After the first phase it lists out as WILL BE REMOVED nearly every component there is and prompts for "Yes, I know what I'm doing". I did this once, and it wrecked my system. If I type anything else, it takes me to another list with still plenty of stuff being removed (including libs from vlc, skype, steam..). What should I do here? I don't want to reinstall my system like I had to do last time..
I set up a VM last night to have a quick look into this, it looks like what's happening is when you install the updated Mesa from the PPA it also needs to update a bunch of other packages (that are not provided by the PPA) due to dependencies. Then when you try to purge the PPA and revert to the older Mesa version, rather than downgrade those other packages to their previous versions it wants to remove them entirely. Unfortunately those packages are rather important, and removing them means removing a lot of the rest of the system that depends on them as well.

Quoting: paasistiLinux Mint 18 with Cinnamon.
I'm usingsudo ppa-purge ppa:paulo-miguel-dias/pkppa
I tried aborting the first deletion and accepting the second, but that didn't get me too far it seems. Now ppa-purge says that the PPA is removed, but my Mesa version is still 13.0.2 - padoka PPA and the original issue is not fixed (and, skype and steam won't start so need to reinstall those, at the least..)

Hum, maybe there is something with the Mint packages not being completely compatible with the Ubuntu ones. Tried the same command you posted (I'm also using Padoka's stable PPA) and it was okay in a Kubuntu 16.10 install.
