    2.6.39??? If 2.6.38 not yet released..... Only Rc's

    I'm tried the newest git code and run's quite fast but not yet s3tc and not DRI???????

    Bla bla bla bla......
    It's interesting...I played at full speed nexuiz but havn't DRI activated.
    Tried Glxgears and got 50fps(the same as always with r600g) but it's too slow, the gears moving quite slowly.
    I don't know how it is posible but i revert to my old mesa-stage until the code has better stability.
    Thanks

      That's why I told you to use drm-radeon-testing in the meantime...

        Yes, but the merge window (when new features are added) closed the week before the first release candidate (or was, I don't remember, the result is the same), so it is not in the 2.6.38 release. If it is about the time it will last, then it will be no more than 3 months to 2.6.39 stable, I think.

          Sure, but if said new feature is hidden behind an envvar, then there's no risk to introduce regressions, right? We could consider this as "staging", and this would allow all the spring distro users to experiment without having to update their kernel (only xorg-edgers ppa or equivalent would be needed, great for the compilation-impaired like myself)

            the update to the kernel was just to allow compressed textures to pass through the Command Stream checker. What I understand about it is that anytime the mesa driver tells the hardware something it passes through the command stream checker in the kernel which verifies that nothing bad is going to happen. Basically to prevent poorly written or malicious software from doing crazy stuff to the hardware.

            So it might be merged into 2.6.38, it doesn't seem like a huge change to allow compressed textures through it.

              But I personally don't know if hide it is enough, maybe another piece of kernel code should be touched to make it work, or even code in the driver itself can make the driver get a regression. Another story would be if the code is right now in the kernel but disabled by default by this envvar, but in that case, you should just change the envvar.

                It would be awesome, but I don't think it will ever happen

                  S3TC is working nicely for me. Darkplaces engine with Tecnox mod running 55FPS at 1366x768. Oh yeah... the hardware is a Acer netbook (AO721) with single core K125 & M880G (R600) GPU. I'll have to try a more recent game engine soon as time allows.

                  Kernel 2.6.28-rc5 & Mesa from git.

                    I tried wow.
                    For what it's worth, I'm impressed.




                    I crashed after a few seconds when I exited the instance.
