Work On Mesa 7.7 Is Underway
,----[ Quote ]
| Anyhow, work on Mesa 7.7 has already started. A number of commits have poured
| into Mesa's Git "master" code-base. Among this work are commits affecting
| LLVMpipe, the Intel i915 Gallium3D driver, the Radeon Gallium3D driver, and the
| general Mesa stack. The Intel hardware driver and software rasterizer has picked
| up support for the GL_ARB_draw_elements_base_vertex, GL_ARB_depth_clamp, and
| GL_NV_depth_clamp. The two prior OpenGL extensions are part of the OpenGL 3
| specification, which Mesa has slowly been adopting.

| This radeon-rewrite merger is also good news for those interested in the
| forthcoming merger of the TTM memory manager and Radeon kernel mode-setting
| into the Linux 2.6.31 kernel.

AMD/ATI Radeon HD 4770 On Linux
,----[ Quote ]
| To those of you interested in AMD's new graphics card, the ATI Radeon HD
| 4770, it does work with Linux. Right now you can run this first 40nm GPU
| using Catalyst 9.4, but you will see an "unsupported hardware" logo in the
| lower right hand corner. There may also be a few other bugs.
