Phoronix: Mesa 10.5 Is In Ubuntu 15.04 For The Latest Open-Source GPU Drivers

For Ubuntu Linux users who haven't tried the Vivid Verbet Beta 1 release yet, you'll be pleased to know that Ubuntu 15.04 is riding off Mesa 10.5 for having the latest open-source graphics drivers...

Sucks that 15.04 won't have X 1.17, even though it was out for weeks before the feature freeze. Huge improvements on GLAMOR.

Glad to see they changed attitude toward graphic performance. I remember a while ago having to run Xorg-edger's PPA in order to get a decent up-to-date Mesa version. Since the 9.X day there's been incredible performance increase. I can't wait to see OpenGL 4.X support going in.

I don't see any reason why Ubuntu 15.04 would not get Xserver 1.17.

MESA 10.5? Good for sure.

MESA 10.5? Good for sure - it got far less bugs than older version when it comes to more or less recent GPUs. It would be nice if they go LLVM 3.6, too. Because everything before 3.6RCs sucked way too much on AMD GCN GPUs.

As i see llvm 3.6 is default for vivid and it is builded agianst 3.6:

Does 15.04 come with War as default display server? With XWar kludge?
