<h1>Mesa 7.1 Release Notes / August 26, 2008</h1> |
|
<p> |
Mesa 7.1 is a new development release. |
There have been many internal code changes since Mesa 7.0.x. |
It should be relatively stable, but those who are especially concerned about |
stability should wait for Mesa 7.2 or use Mesa 7.0.4 (the previous stable |
release). |
</p> |
<p> |
Note that this version of Mesa does not use the GEM memory manager. |
The master branch of git uses GEM. |
</p> |
<p> |
DRM version 2.3.1 should be used with Mesa 7.1 |
</p> |

<h2>New features</h2> |
<ul> |
<li>autoconf-based configuration (and clean-up of Makefiles) |
<li>Assorted DRI driver enhancements |
<li>Reduced dependencies between X server and Mesa |
<li>GL_EXT_texture_from_pixmap extension for Xlib driver |
<li>Support for the GL shading language with i965 driver (implemented by Intel) |
<li>ATI R500 series support (Radeon X1300–X1950) in r300 DRI driver |
</ul> |
|
|
<h2>Bug fixes</h2> |
<ul> |
<li>Numerous GLSL fixes |
<li>Fixed some error code/detection bugs in the GLSL-related API functions |
<li>Lots of DRI driver fixes. |
</ul> |
|
|
<h2>To Do (someday) items</h2> |
<ul> |
<li>Remove the MEMCPY() and _mesa_memcpy() wrappers and just use memcpy(). |
Probably do the same for malloc, calloc, etc. |
The wrappers were useful in the past for memory debugging but now we |
have valgrind. Not worried about SunOS 4 support anymore either... |
<li>Switch to freeglut |
<li>Fix linux-glide target/driver. |
<li>Improved lambda and derivative calculation for frag progs. |
</ul> |
|
