Public bug reported:
New release 7.6.1 -> 7.7.0
Highlights:
* Option "TearFree" can now prevent tearing with rotation/reflection as
well (with Xorg >= 1.16).
* RandR CRTC transforms now work correctly (but for now still exhibit
tearing even with TearFree).
* The RandR 1.4 provider name is now no longer hardcoded to "radeon"
but constructed from the GPU chipset name and bus ID, allowing
several GPUs supported by this driver to be distinguished by name.
* The RandR primary output is now always explicitly marked as such.
* The driver can now make use of more than 256MB of VRAM for scanout
buffers, allowing e.g. virtual desktop sizes >= 8192x8192 to work.
* The driver can prevent clients trying to use the DRI3 extension over a
display connection forwarded via SSH from hanging.
* Many more fixes for issues using the DRI3/Present extensions.
** Affects: xserver-xorg-video-ati (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
** Package changed: intel-vaapi-driver (Ubuntu) => xserver-xorg-video-
ati (Ubuntu)
