Phoronix: Mesa Lands Support For ARB_texture_query_levels

Looking at http://cgit.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/tree/docs/GL3.txt, most likely AMD r600.

GL 3.x features generally seem to be (i965, r600), with r300 and swrast getting it next.

I notice that for GL 3.2 to be finished, Mesa has these two items that aren't DONE:

GLSL 1.50 in progress
Geometry shaders (GL_ARB_geometry_shader4) partially done

All new features in GL 3.3 are done.

...All of which means that pretty soon, my HD3200M will have support for the highest GL level possible on the hardware.
Of course, I'm still waiting for UVD1/UVD2 (as opposed to UVD2.1) support to land.

UVD1 support probably won't land at all as the hardware is quite buggy, UVD 2.0 not any time soon
