<h1>Mesa 8.0 Release Notes / February 9, 2012</h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
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.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
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.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
See the <a href="../install.html">Compiling/Installing page</a> for prerequisites
|
|
for DRI hardware acceleration.

<h2>Bug fixes</h2>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<h2>Changes</h2>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Removed all DRI drivers that did not support DRI2. Specifically,
|
|
i810, mach64, mga, r128, savage, sis, tdfx, and unichrome were
|
|
removed.</li>
|
|
<li>Removed support for BeOS.</li>
|
|
<li>Removed the obsolete (and unmaintained) Windows "gldirect" and
|
|
"ICD" drivers.</li>
|
|
<li>Removed the linux-fbdev software driver.</li>
|
|
<li>Removed all remnants of paletted texture support. As required by
|
|
desktop OpenGL, <tt>GL_COLOR_INDEX</tt> data can still be uploaded
|
|
to a color (e.g., RGBA) texture. However, the data cannot be stored
|
|
internally as color-index.</li>
|
|
<li>Removed support for GL_APPLE_client_storage extension.</li>
|
|
<li>Removed the classic Mesa r300 and r600 drivers, which are superseded
|
|
by the gallium drivers for this hardware.</li>
|
|
<li>Removed the dead Gallium i965, cell and failover drivers, which were
|
|
either broken and with nobody in sight to fix the situation or
|
|
deprecated.</li>
|
|
</ul>
