Bug Description

TI released the 3D drivers for omap3 under a redistributable license. These need to go to universe for maverick so users of omap3 hardware that use ubuntu images can get them easily to do GLES development.

This bug also serves as a feature freeze exception.

Packages will go to the NEW queue today.

This is definitely something the Linaro team would be willing to push for too.

opengles-sgx-omap3-3.01.00.07/debian/opengles-sgx-omap3.udev contains:
KERNEL=="pvrsrvkm", GROUP="users", MODE="0666"

This mode is dangerous. From IRC, this should follow what regular dri uses:
ls -l /dev/dri/card0
crw-rw----+ 1 root video 226, 0 2010-10-01 10:35 /dev/dri/card0

$ getfacl /dev/dri/card0
getfacl: Removing leading '/' from absolute path names
# file: dev/dri/card0
# owner: root
# group: video
user::rw-
user:jamie:rw-
group::rw-
mask::rw-
other::---

Regular users are not in the 'video' group anymore, but 0666 is not correct. Not sure what sets the facl, but it might be gdm. Should contact RAOF from the desktop team for help.

I am going to reject opengles-sgx-omap3 3.01.00.07-0ubuntu1 for now. Please feel free to reupload. The package otherwise looks ok for multiverse.
