------- Comment #2 from [EMAIL PROTECTED]  2007-11-19 17:48 PST -------
Unsupported extensions aren't really a bug, marking as such. It's not really
i915 specific neither, as all chips supported which technically are able to use
s3tc can support it. Moving to core as there isn't any support for that it
seems.
This extensions looks like it might be quite useful, as it's just
EXT_texture_compression_s3tc but for dxt1 formats only (which is a somewhat
unfortunate restriction imho but not too bad), but more importantly it doesn't
require a driver to implement software compression or decompression. Thus it
should probably be safe to announce support for it for chips supporting it
without legal hassle & conformant even without an external library (except for
swrast fallbacks, which in theory could use the chip to do the decompression -
but I think it wouldn't be too bad to just ignore that problem for the
meantime).
