1Mesa 7.1 Release Notes / August 26, 2008 2======================================== 3 4Mesa 7.1 is a new development release. There have been many internal 5code changes since Mesa 7.0.x. It should be relatively stable, but those 6who are especially concerned about stability should wait for Mesa 7.2 or 7use Mesa 7.0.4 (the previous stable release). 8 9Note that this version of Mesa does not use the GEM memory manager. The 10master branch of git uses GEM. 11 12DRM version 2.3.1 should be used with Mesa 7.1 13 14MD5 checksums 15------------- 16 17:: 18 19 971c2fe6e6949dc5ba200a6f97a6dc81 MesaLib-7.1.tar.gz 20 6bff7f532d16f90f944a400c8bd7074d MesaLib-7.1.tar.bz2 21 d48224bf9d54c3da6776adb4869ba024 MesaLib-7.1.zip 22 3de268420efca43e9a19ab506cdfc993 MesaDemos-7.1.tar.gz 23 abfc9775e1462363af8ec160d1feb01f MesaDemos-7.1.tar.bz2 24 f7b3623387c4036e9895cd9ac0dfad99 MesaDemos-7.1.zip 25 fdf348f78cd09304b6ff801ef8acc8eb MesaGLUT-7.1.tar.gz 26 f6d88a4eeb02e98c7e92f1c895d3c76b MesaGLUT-7.1.tar.bz2 27 4dc102a5ca51e1c41dde87d3f8c7b22a MesaGLUT-7.1.zip 28 29New features 30------------ 31 32- autoconf-based configuration (and clean-up of Makefiles) 33- Assorted DRI driver enhancements 34- Reduced dependencies between X server and Mesa 35- GL_EXT_texture_from_pixmap extension for Xlib driver 36- Support for the GL shading language with i965 driver (implemented by 37 Intel) 38- ATI R500 series support (Radeon X1300–X1950) in r300 DRI driver 39 40Bug fixes 41--------- 42 43- Numerous GLSL fixes 44- Fixed some error code/detection bugs in the GLSL-related API 45 functions 46- Lots of DRI driver fixes. 47 48To Do (someday) items 49--------------------- 50 51- Remove the MEMCPY() and \_mesa_memcpy() wrappers and just use 52 memcpy(). Probably do the same for malloc, calloc, etc. The wrappers 53 were useful in the past for memory debugging but now we have 54 valgrind. Not worried about SunOS 4 support anymore either... 55- Switch to freeglut 56- Fix linux-glide target/driver. 57- Improved lambda and derivative calculation for frag progs. 58 59Driver Status 60------------- 61 62:: 63 64 Driver Status 65 ---------------------- ---------------------- 66 DRI drivers varies with the driver 67 XMesa/GLX (on Xlib) implements OpenGL 2.1 68 OSMesa (off-screen) implements OpenGL 2.1 69 Windows/Win32 implements OpenGL 2.1 70 Glide (3dfx Voodoo1/2) implements OpenGL 1.3 71 SVGA unsupported 72 Wind River UGL unsupported 73 DJGPP unsupported 74 GGI unsupported 75 BeOS unsupported 76 Allegro unsupported 77 D3D unsupported 78
