<H1>Mesa 7.6 Release Notes / date TBD</H1>
|

<p>
|
|
|
|
|
Mesa 7.6 is a new development release.
|
|
|
|
|
People who are concerned with stability and reliability should stick
|
|
|
|
|
with a previous release or wait for Mesa 7.6.1.
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
Mesa 7.6 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.

See the <a href="install.html">Compiling/Installing page</a> for prerequisites
|
|
|
|
|
for DRI hardware acceleration.

|
|
Note that the Mesa project is no longer using odd/even version numbers
|
|
|
|
|
to indicate development/stable releases.
|
|
|
|
|
The so-called development releases have been fairly stable.
|
|
|
|
|
If you're especially concerned with stability you should probably look for
|
|
|
|
|
"point" releases such as 7.5.1 which will be a bug-fix release.
