|

|
|---|
| 19 | <p>
|
|---|
| 20 | Mesa 7.8 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 7.8.1.
|
|---|
| 23 | </p>
|
|---|
| 24 | <p>
|
|---|
| 25 | Mesa 7.8 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.
