Comment (by ken@…): Release announcement at [https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/amd- gfx/2018-March/019622.html] I'm pleased to announce the 18.0.0 release of xf86-video-amdgpu, the Xorg driver for AMD Radeon GPUs supported by the amdgpu kernel driver. This release supports xserver versions 1.13-1.19. It also works with xserver 1.20 RC1, so unless something unexpected happens, it should work with xserver 1.20 as well. Highlights: * New year-based versioning scheme * Page flipping can now be used even when the HW cursor can't be used in some cases * Support for 30-bit RGB colour output. Note that gamma correction is currently not available with 30-bit colour. Also, hardware acceleration is not available with 30-bit colour with xserver versions before 1.20. The year-based versioning is why the major version has jumped so much. -- Ticket URL: <http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/ticket/10462#comment:1> BLFS Trac <http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs> Beyond Linux From Scratch -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/blfs-book FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
