<H1>Mesa 7.8 Release Notes / date TBD</H1>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
Mesa 7.8 is a new development release.
|
|
|
|
People who are concerned with stability and reliability should stick
|
|
|
|
with a previous release or wait for Mesa 7.8.1.
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
Mesa 7.8 implements the OpenGL 2.1 API, but the version reported by
|
|
|
|
glGetString(GL_VERSION) depends on the particular driver being used.
|
|
|
|
Some drivers don't support all the features required in OpenGL 2.1.
