*** Install ***

Note for "legacy" hardware: Mesa >= 22 removes support for older hardware. Mesa 21.3.x LTS has been updated to allow co-installation of drivers for older hardware along with newer Mesa >= 22 packages. For older drivers do:

  sudo apt-get install libgl1-amber-dri

Notes for nVidia hardware: Proprietary driver versions prior to 340.107 (found in official {xenial,bionic}-updates repos) are not compatible with X.Org xserver 1.20 found at this PPA. So do not add this PPA if running older nVidia hardware (NV4x and G7x GPUs) that depends on legacy 304.* driver series! For newer proprietary nVidia drivers than in the official Ubuntu repositories, please see the Ubuntu "Graphics Drivers" team PPA here: https://launchpad.net/~graphics-drivers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa

Notes for mpv: Builds of mpv with newer Wayland & protocols are now found here for all series, to enable additional features with newer mpv versions (see ppa:savoury1/mpv for builds not requiring this PPA). As mpv requires other PPAs the following steps are required to install mpv from this PPA:

  sudo add-apt-repository ppa:savoury1/display
  sudo add-apt-repository ppa:savoury1/ffmpeg4
  sudo add-apt-repository ppa:savoury1/ffmpeg5
  sudo add-apt-repository ppa:savoury1/mpv
  sudo apt-get update
  sudo apt-get install libmpv2 mpv

Notes for Xenial: Mesa >= 20 builds have a few test failures for Intel ANV drivers when using kernel 4.4 (Xenial default). It is highly advisable to run a newer kernel if you want to install new Mesa drivers from this PPA.

Newer kernels can easily be installed using Ukuu 18.9.3 ("Ubuntu kernel update utility" also patched for recent changes at kernel.ubuntu.com and available at ppa:savoury1/utilities). Based on consistent testing since mid-2019 kernel 4.19, a Super Long-Term Service (SLTS) kernel that will be supported for a number of years, is an excellent choice for Xenial systems that have upgrades installed from my various PPAs (including this one).

Finally, for Xenial newer Compiz requires newer GTK due a requirement for Metacity >= 3.22 so to upgrade Compiz will require the GTK backports PPA:

  sudo add-apt-repository ppa:savoury1/gtk-xenial
  sudo apt-get update
  sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

For anyone still running a Xenial-based system upgrading to GTK 3.22 from the above PPA is basically essential if you want to run the latest version of a whole range of software. So it is a strongly advised PPA for Xenial, and always remember to backup first before starting the upgrade process!
