Mesa 19.0 Released With Many Improvements To The Open-Source Vulkan/OpenGL Drivers

[towo2099]

Low educated and non creative people use their time to useless things like compiling software that is compiled already and writing BS to the internet.

Now it's time to grab your own nose.
You allways write bullshit in nearly 99% of your posts (use agd5f wip kernels, compile that with a depricated command, use my supderduper distro, use a frankendebian).
You're really just a wannabe specialist.

Thanks @ all Mesa devs for the hard work.
My favourite rolling distribution of choice is ready for the update.

@ PPA gallery: Learn to compile mesa or finally get a sane distribution. Why would you mess with outdated mesa versions or worse with outdated git revisions? That's what I call a waste of time.

Sorry, but I have to disagree. (but not completely)

Only my two cents ...

This is definitely the "best" variant and also the one you should use if you can.

But this "if you can" is exactly the problem.

There are certainly enough users out there who are overloaded with compiling, who think that they are overloaded and therefore don't do it, or those who don't have to have the latest build state by the minute it releases and can save time because of it.

This is similar to the GNU/FOSS versus proprietary software discussion. If we want more users to be able to imagine a Linux-based PC, then we also have to accept that most of the new users won't be able to access these depths of abstraction. Especially possible Windows switcher want a system that works as well as possible and where no manual adjustments have to be made. And under this aspect I have to say I don't care if something is GNU/FOSS or propietary. Or if someone uses a PPA.

Debianxfce, you're a moron. And on my 8 core ryzen 1700 system, it's about a 2 minute compile. Doable on an i3 laptop in 10, I'd bet.

Why isn't he banned for stupidity in general? Serious question, people.

That's what I've been wondering for a long time.

You destroy your solid state drive with antergos or something when constantly compiling mesa and other stuff.

I've never read so much BS on phoronix before!

Seriously, Stop, You're embarrassing yourself .

Nesxt you'll be saying we're wearing our CPU's out
