    Phoronix: Mesa Has Already Seen More Code Changes This Year Than All Of 2015

    With the work on the Intel Vulkan driver, OpenGL 4.x being close to finished off for the main graphics drivers, and AMD doubling down work on performance optimizations, there is already more code changes in Mesa Git this year than all of 2015...

      How long for a CONTROL PANEL on Mesa as CCC (Catalyst Control PAnel where to see software specs (opengl, opengl ES, webGL, DirectX features and so on), Hardware features as Texel textures, Pixel textures, Badnwidth, Gpu frequency features and so on, and Vga Bios features SSID and PCIID ID, and all the vga bios stuff of VGA!?

      Is there a way to flash vga bios by linux as well as the motherboard chipset itself!?

        Hopefully a while, because there's a lot more urgent stuff I'd prefer they focus on first.

          Ok but it is also important the possibility to manage the vga other than to have information about its capabilities.

            I'm always curious to why such a Control Panel would be needed. I'm using Dualboot, Linux and a well known Gameloader from Redmond for my occasional gaming needs. Even under Windows, i open that tools about once every 2 years. The last time was finding that "Enable Freesync" Slider once, that was somehow disabled by an Crimson driverupdate 3 month ago. The last time before that run is at least another year back in time.

              yup, there is a lot of ways for doing this.

              flashrom,nvbios and binwalk are some of 'em.

                    many developers on linux forget to face with final users, they assume that user is a programmer. That's one of the reasons many users refuse to approach with linux operating systems. many developers don't have the intelligence to understand the simplicity.
