When mesa starts supporting OpenGL 3.3 will both plugins work fine?

GSdx woulds needs some GL4 extensions too. I send some patch on mesa so hopefully it would be ok.
On zzogl topic, there are some bugs on Mesa. I'm waiting the release of Debian Wheezy and hopefully a mesa upgrade (got only 8.0....).

But the HD3870 doesn't support OGL 4.0 :/
Would the extensions work even when running 3.3?

It would be fine. HD3870 doesn't support ALL opengl 4 extensions but it supports some (rough guess 50%). Actually those extensions could even be supported by DX9 class hardware.
However zzogl must be fine on your GPU except if GLSL was enabled.

I would say it depends on how you compiled pcsx2. By going to this page..
http://code.google.com/p/pcsx2/wiki/Comp...sing_cmake
..using GLSL is an compiling option (see cmake section). It is not typically used by default. Instead nvidia-cg is used. You could try the ZZogl 0.3 version as it is based off the cg version. It may or may not cooperate. Ultimately, pcsx2 linux requires fairly new hardware.
On a side note, I was not totally sure what GLSL meant either. So wikipedia helped me out on this one...
