Nouveau Picks Up Slightly Better OpenGL 4.0 Support

Unfortunately I don't think there's any demand for tessellation shaders / subroutines atm., so I think nobody will work on these massive features any time soon. Which is unfortunate, because I'd totally like to try out shader subroutines. =/ I wonder if they can be implemented on GL3 hardware..

Originally posted by giucam View PostWell, it's not, not at all. imirkin can and enjoys working on opengl, if you told him to stop working on that to concentrate on reclocking or whatever else he may decide to stop contributing to nouveau alltogether, because since you're not paid you must at least enjoy what you're doing. Now where's the gain?

^Yes, I understand that. I guess this is just one of those things that I do not find newsworthy, but other people do.

Cart before horse?

<insert "Supported Features" XKCD here>
I would rather get involved, but that implies using Nouveaau if you're not a C programmer, I imagine the only ways to help are to distort the situation when talking about its performance to make more people use Nouveau (loss of honesty), or reporting bugs (loss of performance since you don't use the NVIDIA driver).Last edited by Calinou; 07 April 2014, 09:44 AM.
