** Description changed:

- The Mesa project requires a kernel change to support OpenGL 3.0
- on Intel's gen7 (Ivy Bridge) hardware.
+ [Impact]
+ The Mesa project requires a kernel change to support OpenGL 3.0 on Intel's 
gen7 (Ivy Bridge) hardware.  Without this, applications requiring GL 3.0 won't 
work properly for owners of this hardware.
  
+ [Test Case]
  To reproduce the issue, run:
  $ glxinfo| grep "OpenGL version"
  
  This result is the failing case:
  OpenGL version string: 2.1 Mesa 8.0.2
  
  This result is the successful case:
  OpenGL version string: 3.0 Mesa 8.0.2
  
+ [Fix]
  To resolve the issue, the kernel commit
  ae662d31264979e52581bd2573bf0b82812f52ab
  "drm/i915: Add support for resetting the SO write pointers on gen7."
  should be cherry-picked.
  (This commit is available in the kernel mainline.)
  
  I have tested this with
  git://kernel.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ubuntu-precise.git
  The commit cherry picks cleanly, and resolves the issue.
