|
|---|
| 18 |
|
|---|
| 19 | <p>
|
|---|
| 20 | Mesa 7.7 is a new development release.
|
|---|
| 21 | People who are concerned with stability and reliability should stick
|
|---|
| 22 | with a previous release or wait for Mesa 7.7.1.
|
|---|
| 23 | </p>
|
|---|
| 24 | <p>
|
|---|
| 25 | Mesa 7.7 implements the OpenGL 2.1 API, but the version reported by
|
|---|
| 26 | glGetString(GL_VERSION) depends on the particular driver being used.
|
|---|
| 27 | Some drivers don't support all the features required in OpenGL 2.1.

| 30 | See the <a href="../install.html">Compiling/Installing page</a> for prerequisites
|
|---|
| 31 | for DRI hardware acceleration.

| 49 | <h2>New features</h2>
|
|---|
| 50 | <ul>
|
|---|
| 51 | <li>VMware "SVGA" Gallium driver. This is a Gallium3D driver which targets the
|
|---|
| 52 | VMware virtual graphics device. It allows Linux OpenGL guest applications
|
|---|
| 53 | to utilize the 3D graphics hardware of the host operating system.
|
|---|
| 54 | <li>GL_ARB_draw_elements_base_vertex (supported in Intel i965 and software drivers)</li>
|
|---|
| 55 | <li>GL_ARB_depth_clamp (supported in Intel i965 DRI and software drivers)</li>
|
|---|
| 56 | <li>GL_NV_depth_clamp (supported in Intel i965 DRI and software drivers)</li>
|
|---|
| 57 | <li>GL_ARB_provoking_vertex (same as GL_EXT_provoking_vertex)</li>
|
|---|
| 58 | <li>Wavefront .obj file loader/viewer demo (progs/demos/objviewer)
|
|---|
| 59 | </ul>
|
|---|
| 60 |
|
|---|
| 61 |
|
|---|
| 62 | <h2>Bug fixes</h2>
|
|---|
| 63 | <ul>
|
|---|
| 64 | <li>Many assorted i965 driver fixes.
|
|---|
| 65 | <li>Many r300-gallium driver fixes; this driver is now considered unstable-quality instead of experimental-quality.
|
|---|
| 66 | </ul>
|
|---|
| 67 |
|
|---|
| 68 |
|
|---|
| 69 | <h2>Changes</h2>
|
|---|
| 70 | <ul>
|
|---|
| 71 | <li>New Mesa texture/surface format infrastructure
|
|---|
| 72 | <li>Removed some unused Mesa device driver hooks
