I got a lot of flak from readers here when I said we were even *working* on UVD and advanced PM, because they understood there would need to be a lot of internal work before we would have anything to show for it and a good chance we would end up having to toss some work and start over a couple of times along the way.
It seems somehow wrong to attack us for spending time on difficult areas that are not likely to show immediate results *and* to attack us for not having results in those areas yet.
If you're just saying "I wish it were easier" I sure wouldn't disagree with that
And the "attack" is not to the people doing the hard work. Its to those people that said no after all the work.

The hell with all of you. These are mostly pretty good points. I dunno how relevant would the update to OpenGL3.2+ be but the rest I'm pretty content with.
It doesn't necessarily mean that you're on a bad mood just because you're bringing up some missing anticipated features in such an important component. Also I wonder who the _hell_ did think that Mesa 9.0 was somehow disappointing up until now. You dumb f*cks.
And no, I'm not in a bad mood myself. Just disappointed in the stupidity that I keep seeing down here. Might even quote that idiot from the other thread:
F*ck you in the biggest way.Last edited by ArchLinux; 10 October 2012, 06:21 PM.

Does this apply to UVD as well as power management, or should we keep working on UVD ?
Thanks,

I know that its not up to you neither tim to decide what gets released and i am not putting the blame on you, him or any of the mesa guys. But the result is what matters.
And of course you can keep working on whatever you like.

my humble sugestion:
1. gather money(xorg foundation) for looots of cheap cards (too burn)
2. set up a (semi)automated blackbox rig or two
3. get some1 dumb enough to read hexdumps all day
4. lock him/them in a room with the rig's for a month, no proper food till its all figured out
5. ??
6. profit
