Originally posted by Jumbotron View PostI'm sorry. But RADV wins most of the tests and when it does not it loses by a handful of frames which is still lower than the 15% threshold that most visual experts say you have to have to be able to perceive a difference in the real world.
- pull people off other parts of the open source driver work so we can have them add support for new HW generations to RADV instead...
- wait until a few months after each new HW launch for Dave and others to have time to add support themselves...
... or do we leverage PAL work being done for other OSes & APIs in AMDVLK and maybe even in radeonsi, and use relatively more of our Linux budget for things that really need to be Linux-specific ?Last edited by bridgman; 24 December 2017, 08:36 PM.Test signature

Originally posted by leipero View PostAs far as I know, it would be incorrect to claim that Vulkan is created by AMD. Acording to the wiki, Khronos Group develops it, and it consist from all sorts of companies including AMD, nvidia and Intel. AMD did created Mantle, and latter (potentially) incorporated parts in Microsoft DirectX 12.Last edited by bridgman; 24 December 2017, 08:26 PM.Test signature

And Yes, I'm asking about the panel and its guts

Originally posted by bridgman View PostLet's talk about Radeon Settings then - that's what we call the control panel AFAIK.
Once the name of the driver package has become more like a package for Windows, so we are getting closer and closer to erase more of the boundaries between operating systems?
What stands in the way of porting the "Radeon Settings" on Linux?
Surely for the sake of marketing will have to wait for 11 December 2018, when there will be some "Alizar Edition", which together with the new features for the driver and will bring the full panel for Linux?
