Mesa 7.1 is a new development release.
|
2008-05-27 19:51:10 +01:00
|
|
|
There have been many internal code changes since Mesa 7.0.x.
|
|
|
|
|
It should be relatively stable, but those who are especially concerned about
|
2008-08-26 22:58:42 +01:00
|
|
|
stability should wait for Mesa 7.2 or use Mesa 7.0.4 (the previous stable
|
|
|
|
|
release).
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
Note that this version of Mesa does not use the GEM memory manager.
|
|
|
|
|
The master branch of git uses GEM.

|
|
|
|
DRM version 2.3.1 should be used with Mesa 7.1

<h2>To Do (someday) items</h2>
|
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
2007-06-12 22:16:21 +01:00
|
|
|
<li>Remove the MEMCPY() and _mesa_memcpy() wrappers and just use memcpy().
|
|
|
|
|
Probably do the same for malloc, calloc, etc.
|
|
|
|
|
The wrappers were useful in the past for memory debugging but now we
|
|
|
|
|
have valgrind. Not worried about SunOS 4 support anymore either...
|
2007-05-14 21:40:59 +01:00
|
|
|
<li>Switch to freeglut
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Fix linux-glide target/driver.
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Improved lambda and derivative calculation for frag progs.
|
|
|
|
