Thanks! But... mmmm... the use runs "wheezy" which I guess includes an updated version of the packages (btw, what are the packages we would need to update?), so I don't see the point for getting them from backports.

Whoops, sorry, I should have remembered.

Mesa is libgl1-mesa-dri and libgl1-mesa-glx. The DDX driver is[1] xserver-xorg-video-radeon and libdrm-radeon1, I suppose. One can get fairly recent versions of most packages from sid or experimental.
