Editing Performance Optimizations

==Graphics Check==
<pre>glxinfo | grep "Max core profile version"</pre>
It needs to show a number 4.1 or greater otherwise graphically demanding games such as Zero-K won't run correctly.
If it doesn't you need to do the following.

Do a backup before preceding. These instructions written for Debian 9 but will likely work on other distributions with little modification.

==Backport libdrm from sid==
<pre>
apt-get build-dep libdrm
apt-get source libdrm -t sid
debuild -b -uc -us libdrm
dpkg install libdrm
</pre>

==Build New Mesa3d==
<pre>
apt-get install llvm-3.9-dev
ln -sf /usr/bin/llvm-config-3.9 /usr/bin/llvm-config
git clone git://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/mesa/mesa
