Fine for me: I'm on Radeon HW... But see comment #3: in the case you suggested there is not feature parity for nouveau (vieux, gallium or whatever). And, for the sake of arguing, I would like to ask what is the point of a *stable* mesa release going to be broken in one of their drivers by an otherwise apparently "innocent" libdrm *stable* upgrade (which in the release announce nobody warned against); moreover, a brokenness that will remain until the release of Mesa 8.1 (about 3 months in the future)... Not all the users are willing to live at the bleeding edge of the git master, while still willing to have a graphic stack updated to the stable level. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ Nouveau mailing list Nouveau@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/nouveau
