Yes, that's the idea I had. I found reference to it in the OpenGL spec, pp. 120-121, and there it says that the maximum texture size must be at least 2^(k-lod)+2*b_t, but it doesn't specify in any way that MAX_TEXTURE_SIZE is derived from the max lod . This prevents Mesa to describe the limitation of devices not capable of doing mipmaps yet capable of handling textures bigger than 1x1... > > Sure, maybe I missed something before.
