Mesa 8.0 Release Notes / February 9, 2012 |
|
========================================= |
|
|
|
Mesa 8.0 is a new development release. People who are concerned with |
|
stability and reliability should stick with a previous release or wait |
|
for Mesa 8.0.1. |
|
|
|
Mesa 8.0 implements the OpenGL 3.0 API, but the version reported by |
|
glGetString(GL_VERSION) depends on the particular driver being used. |
|
Some drivers don't support all the features required in OpenGL 3.0. |
|
|
|
See the :doc:`Compiling/Installing page <../install>` for |
|
prerequisites for DRI hardware acceleration. |

Bug fixes |

|
Changes |
|
------- |
|
|
|
- Removed all DRI drivers that did not support DRI2. Specifically, |
|
i810, mach64, mga, r128, savage, sis, tdfx, and unichrome were |
|
removed. |
|
- Removed support for BeOS. |
|
- Removed the obsolete (and unmaintained) Windows "gldirect" and "ICD" |
|
drivers. |
|
- Removed the linux-fbdev software driver. |
|
- Removed all remnants of paletted texture support. As required by |
|
desktop OpenGL, ``GL_COLOR_INDEX`` data can still be uploaded to a |
|
color (e.g., RGBA) texture. However, the data cannot be stored |
|
internally as color-index. |
|
- Removed support for GL_APPLE_client_storage extension. |
|
- Removed the classic Mesa r300 and r600 drivers, which are superseded |
|
by the gallium drivers for this hardware. |
|
- Removed the dead Gallium i965, cell and failover drivers, which were |
|
either broken and with nobody in sight to fix the situation or |
|
deprecated.
